There is!  It's in ~emacs/etc/refcard.tex.  If you don't have TeX you
can anonymous FTP the Postscript output from

There is, etc/refcard.tex in the Emacs 18 distribution.  The reference
card printed on nice stock is included when you buy the GNU Emacs Manual,
and it can be purchased separately.  Type C-h C-d for ordering info.

Does anyone know if there is a way to change the prefix used by 
mail-yank-original ? I have looked through a few emacs books and
I don't seem to find anything. I would like to change it to use
an '> ' instead of three spaces. All I can find is how to change the
prefix to be greater or fewer than the default of three.

Thanks for any information...

Organization: Gatewayed from the GNU Project mailing list help-gnu-emacs@prep.ai.mit.edu
Date: Tue, 12 Jan 1993 12:51:07 GMT

People are talking about having non-chronological undo in Emacs.
I once implemented an undo facility that could undo out of order.  
It requires two things:

* Implementing restoration of old values of buffer pointers.  When you
delete, markers formerly unequal can become equal.  Undoing the delete
has to make these markers unequal again.

* Using markers in the undo records.  

Then, if you undo out of order, it automatically updates the markers
in the undo records for more recent operations, so they are undone
correctly.

The hard part is making it efficient to have very large numbers of
markers in one buffer.  With the current data structure, updating them
for a deletion or gap motion might be painfully slow.  Or maybe it
would be acceptable--I'm not sure.

I don't have time to work on this, but it would be a good thing for
someone else to work on.  If you can understand the relevant parts of
Emacs without a lot of questions, and you have a fair amount of time
to spend on this, let me know if you're interested.

Curious coincidence. Earlier today I had to do a replace-string of \M-
to \e in some contributed .el files. The reason was that I had 
meta-prefix-char set to C-] so that I could remap e.g. oslash (M-x) to 
meta-self-insert-char without touching ESC x (this is part of a local
hack of latin1-mode, but I hope you get the idea), so now M-x means "oslash
or C-] x", which I definitely don't want. I think that for this kind of
reason, it is preferable to use the \e notation. Most but not all files
in $EMACSHOME/lisp do that (gdb.el doesn't, e.g.), so one might get the
idea that someone else has thought the same before.

The only solution I received was to run the following command before
starting the previewer

	ESC ESC (setq TeX-zap-file "filename") 

where filename is the name of the file on which has to be previewed
(current buffer or Master file).  The filename SHOULD NOT have the
.tex extension.  This solution works perfectly.

I'd like to know what you find out.  I get the most lower memory by
using EMM386 noems and loadhigh, but then demacs doesn't run.  If I
use EMM386 ram, then demacs works, but only one TSR loads high, and
I'm wasting RAM used as expanded memory.  In fact, that situation
isn't much different from not loading EMM386 at all.

I currently have it set to vt100 and when I use it for emacs sessions,

     I've been told that V18.59 works fine under HP-UX 8.0.

     There are three ways to get GNU Emacs running on an HP machine:

* Get version 18.59, which is supposed to support S700s.

* For vanilla GNU Emacs V18.57, patches can be obtained via anonymous
  ftp from liasun3.epfl.ch [ non-authoritative address is
  128.178.36.30 ].  The filename is "/pub/gnu/emcs1857HPUX8p".  If you
  don't have access to anonymous ftp, send email and I'll send you a
  copy (note that I haven't tested them, although I am told that they
  work well).

* You can obtain a copy of the "unofficial HP GNU Emacs", which is a
  greatly enhanced version of GNU Emacs V18.58 (note that this is
  *NOT* supported by HP).  While it should still work with other
  workstations, this version has been optimized for use with HP
  workstations, and has many non-standard enhancements, a complete set
  of laserjet-ready documentation, and many other bells and whistles.
  Send email if you want a detailed description.

  Note that this version is based upon V18.58, and not V18.59 (there
  aren't a lot of changes between them).

  Sources are currently available via anonymous ftp from
  iworks.ecn.uiowa.edu [128.255.18.10] (as /comp.hp/GNUEmacs.tar.Z) --
  please ftp these files during off hours.  You'll need a lot of disk
  space, as this compressed tar archive is about EIGHTEEN MEGABYTES in
  size.

  Also note that power comes at a price: you need about forty (40!)
  megabytes of disk space to extract and compile the "unofficial HP GNU
  Emacs".  Once everything has been compiled, you can remove many of the
  files, such as the laserjet-ready documentation.

Note further that you need a C compiler and software development
libraries to compile Emacs.  Many newer HP workstations do not come with
a software developement system and have only a minimal C compiler, good
only for regenerating the HP-UX kernel.  You will not be able to compile
Emacs unless you have the full C compiler, include files, and software
development libraries.

I think i know the, or at least an, answer to this one.

Completing read takes a vector of symbols as well as an alist.  The
vector serves as the flat table format, handy for those times when
you're dealing with, eg, the elisp obarray.  Given a match in the
obarray, you obtain an associated value via a suitable symbol lookup
function (eg, symbol-{value,function}), or whatever custom relation
you prefer.

Alists are suited to those purposes where the value is encoded in the
table.  You get the value once you have the key via the assoc and assq
functions...

I've been messing with the completion functions, extending intrinsic
minibuffer completion for incremental, in-the-minibuffer candidate
displays.  The seemingly arbitrary completion functions wind up
covering all the bases pretty nicely.

want.  See the top of c++-mode.el (2.195) for how to get beta versions
of the mode, and patches to make GNU/Lucid emacs handle C++ comment
styles.

New public version of c++-mode.el and better patches will be released
RSN (please don't ask me exactly when... ;-}

 The functions that deal with "words"; like forward-word, backward-word, 
word-search-forward, etc, consider underscore '_' as a word terminator. 
So something like C_DEFINITION would be considered three "words"; C, _ and 
DEFINITION. Is there some way I can get emacs to treat underscore as part of
a word? I may want to do the same thing with dash. 

  Thanks in advance for all useful responses.
