I agree with all that. I haven't used XEmacs intensively so there bound
to be features I don't know.

I don't like the default Emacs on my Uni's server, it is 22.1. So I
compile emacs and put it in /tmp and make a backup. I have been using it
since December last year. This can be a workaround.
Anyway, I understand the situation ;)
