RE: xemacs under B20.1




For those of us trying to spread the XEmacs *and* 
cygwin gospel to the zombie masses used to using 
Windoze - haveing a slick install package is a definite 
advantage.  I can share a directory that has a few .exe's 
and just say - "install these things" and it is simple.  

Now if I can just wean them off the DOS command line 
and get them  to use bash instead.... <sigh>

Myself - I'll recompile xemacs with cygwin - in my 
spare time (yeah right) - or when something really 
starts to annoy me about the pre-compiled executable. 
But, nothing in the last 2 weeks has annoyed me that 
much.
