I'm confused as to why you don't like (a)... i empathize w/ the authors of the tutorials who may not wish to change their text. there are enough rules and regulations in the world (especially when you translate your thoughts into software) that i am inclined to favor approaches that extend the methods for collecting and accessing metadata (i.e., learning to be more descriptive) more than approaches that involve forcing conformity, especially when it comes to codified thought other than that which must be understood by the stupid computer. whether or not the required change is a big deal in practice is another matter entirely. as is anything "in practice". perhaps i'm weird (ok, i know i'm weird), but i would not wish to put creative energy into a Work and then be told post-facto that the effort must be redone due to limitations in the audience. i feel such a request shows disrespect. thi _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
