Thanks Eric, that was nothing. The effort is yours alone.

BTW there is small and annoying differences between the sourceforge and
the github repository, in the sense that the graph is not the same, since
somebody committed some time ago a changeset to github which is not in
sourceforge, so I merged and synchronised but as I said the graph is not
entirely the same

Ok I will only have a change to test this in around 2 weeks.

BTW since you are in developer mode, there was something I was missing
recently. I try to look it up what is was.

As a former long term user of Xemacs, I hesitate to support is. In my
opinion, it should be left as it is if a certain feature cannot be
implemented for Xemacs so be it, but don't remove Xemacs compatibility code.

In comments I consider it as useful.
