Hi there, finally got DSL back, so it doesn't take me an hour to cvs up=20
xemacs:)
I had a hard time fixing conflicts resulting from Ben's big commit, but=20
now it's back in shape.

I'm still working on the BeOS port and gui, I started implementing=20
scrollbars, though I keep them disabled atm because they seem to flood=20
the message loop (redraw tweaks them, they send a message, which causes=20
a redraw...).

I was wondering what to do on the menubar stuff though, for ex the msw=20
code only builds submenus when they are opened. Here it would be=20
probably simpler to build them all at once, and update them on change.=20
Is it doable or do all backends do the same as msw ?

Anyway I can use gnus just fine for usenet :)

I see there is some talk around about UTF-8, that's good :)

I've published a binary of chayote some time ago on bebits,
I didn't think I'd get that many downloads=20
(though they count also that of an old tty only build)
