Hello, I am trying to customize Epoch as EDT/TPU/LSE on DECstations... It's almost working: the keypad, the functions keys are ok. I'm also creating new commands so that the minibuffer behaves almost as the Command line of TPU. The major remaining problem is the text selection : - When I press Select, I mark the current position (as TPU does), but after that, TPU displays in reverse video the text between the mark and the current cursor location. Is there any contrib that does that ? - A 'pending delete' would also be nice : when some text is selected, entering new text supersedes the selected text. - A better support of the mouse would also help : * double click on a word selects it * 2 quick double clicks on a line selects it * 3 quick double clicks select the whole buffer * Shift + Click could also extend the selection Apart from this text selection problems, when do you think a 'menu driven' interface (using Motif ?) will be available (Emacs 19 ?). Thanks for any hint/help, Stephane.
