It's not that bad. Carbon Emacs, Cocoa Emacs and Emacs.app (probably the others as well) are obsolete since GNU Emacs started to provide native Mac support. Aquamacs is pretty popular, though (like mvim). > > > No, it's more than that.

And many Linux users aren't aware of the Compse key; I think it is not mapped to any of the special keys in default Ubuntu installations. Again, all this shouldn't be explained in lshort.pdf unless you are planning to write dozens of pages about Unicode input methods. -------------------------------------------------- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex
