   Get Emacs2.0 which is a frontend for your emacs. I think i found it on
   cs.orst.edu or {nova,sonata}.cc.purdue.edu. Emacs2.0 uses ALT as META,
   you can use the mouse to set the cusor to any point, and you can use
   CMD-{X,C,V,Z} to do what you expcet from it. 
   My problem is, that this is not of much use in Germany where we have to
   type eg 'ALT-8' to get '['.

Just a silly question.  Is it possible to specify a filename on the "Emacs"
command line like it is with normal emacs ?
