I have "delicate" feelings about both my emacsen. I think there are plenty of people in the same boat. It's in my (and our) interest to see both efforts continue and thrive. If something was said in e.e.xemacs that I think could hurt the feelings of XEmacs developers, I'd say something as well. If you had pointed out some specific short comings of XEmacs (there are some), I wouldn't have minded. But to make a general statement like: >> . . .you are wise to migrate to the One True Editor. > >What was I thinking??? IMHO is wholly not appropriate. -- Le
