	I've continued using it because of my attachment to the
	non-local mini-buffer in epoch. I've found it very useful,
	and I wish it were available in lemacs. Emacs19 allows
	non-local mini-buffers, but I don't think lemacs does.
	However, given the new features in lemacs, perhaps it's
	time to throw in the towel (or hack it into lemacs,
	I believe the stubs may be there).
