However, I want to make sure everyone knows that before I start diving down this rabbit hol= e that I=B9m going to make sure ecb work as it is in a rock solid manner with the latest version of Emacs. Please keep in mind that the current changes I=B9ve made are=8Ahacks. I really just did whatever I could to remove dependencies on deprecated functions. In some cases the changes really don=B9t make sense but do work. Once we have that done, I want to look at building on that and bringing new features like this one.
