Why not just make a couple of pre-defined .emacs files for users coming from other backgrouns, and post them up on EmacwWiki (or whatever)? Then you could have a coming-from-windows.emacs and a coming-from-mac.emacs or used-ms-word-alot.emacs, etc etc. /Mathias _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
