Will > it be Lepoch, Epocid Emacs, Epumacs, Elumacs...? This has yet to be determined; our marketing folks pretty much insist that the word Lucid be in there. For a while Simon and Chuck were calling it ERA (Emacs Rewritten Again) but that's a misnomer, since you'd hardly call it a rewrite. I think now they want to call it "Lepoch", which I'm also not real fond of. Lucid Emacs Plus Epoch Redisplay = LEPER. I think that some day there should be an editor call NECROMACS: The Editor of the Dead. This would be cool because the manual would then logically be called the NECROMACSICON. -- Jamie
