I just installed emacs and it runs fine but I would still like to have a few
additional features.  Is it possible to run emacs in a window like in X
Windows so that I can use the mouse?  How can I use the ALT key as the meta
key?  If these features haven't been implemented yet, can somebody tell me how
difficult it would be to implement them?

I tried to make OS/2 windows bigger than 80 x 25 characters but I was
unsuccessful.  Is that possible to do in OS/2 at all?  If yes, do I have to
change the termcap file or does emacs understand a convention similar to
vt100-64 for a 64 line vt100.

I'm sorry if these questions have been answered many times before but I did
not find any answers in the FAQ list.
