I have allot of epoch code that uses zones.   Is this called multi font support
and not available in emacs 19.7?   If so no way will I move.   I like epoch, am
not interested in spending allot of time migrating to lucid faces or emacs 19.7.   However,
Lucid faces appear to be allot faster than zones  The C++ mode for lucid  allows larger
buffers to be displayed because the faces implementation is more efficient.

1.  What will lepoch 5.0 use for a basis of epoch zones? The current lemacs C code or
the epoch code.   

2.  We are big users of selective display.  Lucid has this turned off.  If lucid
is used as a start point this needs to be fixed.   When will the great display
code rewrite happen.   Will this be fixed for lepoch 5.0?

3. emacs 19.7 supports scroll bars.  I do not think that lemacs does.   Hopefully,
lepoch 5.0 will.

4. epoch zones are unusable for column data today.  I have a table format that
users want highlighted using different colors in cols .  The table is a PLA kind
of thing with allot of zone changes.  epoch takes 10+ sec to do a pageup if I use
this many zones.   Can this be made more efficient? 

Thanks for epoch.  If lepoch means fewer migration problems for epoch users I
vote for your emacs alternative.
