I can't help but wonder why Mr. Gallaher complained that people should compare the different version of Emacs, while not giving us anything to compare to. It is a fact of life that not many people are going to go out and buy CCA Emacs (especially if they have had problems with earlier versions) if they already have something that is free and that works. On the other hand, if you were to respond to articles such as this one by contributing something useful (i.e., how to turn fill mode on when in text mode), then you might accomplish the additional goal of showing us what is good about CCA Emacs. This seems far more productive than berating people for preferring the Emacs they have to the one they don't. -- David desJardins
