(I also got about a third of the sources before I realized that I could just get the binaries). Anyway, I finally moved everything onto my amiga and decompressed the binaries. Now, however, I'm having a couple problems getting it installed. I had previously used uemacs3.9i, but was never really happy with it since I could find no way to make my ALT key act as meta. On c.s.a, you said that in 3.10 it could be done, so I assume that it's in the documentation file emacs.txt. I haven't found it yet, but that might just be a case of not looking hard enough. If it's NOT there (in the docs), how do I do it? Perhaps the biggest problem with uemacs 3.10 is that it is not letting me make my editor window larger than 77 cols/19 rows. I'm using morerows, and with uemacs3.9i I was able to get the size up to something like 81 x 23. What do I do?? Another question I had was regarding the pull down menus--they're there in 3.9i, but missing from 3.10. Any comments? And one more question: is there any way to make a region turn inverse video when it is selected (with the mouse or otherwise)? I'm not sure what the problem is! Please help!!
