I do want to distribute the package separately, but I am not interested in Emacs 20 compatibility. I am interested in Emacs 21 compatibility, because it is what I now use, and I am interested in XEmacs compatibility because the package was written for and is still distributed by XEmacs. Obviously, I also care about the package working in the latest Emacs. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
