- Well I have been following the progress of lemacs since the day it came
- out, and being an avid epoch addict I was excited to see (hopefully)
- something better come along. But the only thing that was really holding
- me back from switching was source code hilightining. Thanks to Mike Scheidler
- for his hilit package I have now made the transition.
-
- I am a novice elisp hacker at best, and am trying to figure out how to
- write two functions, x-find-file, and x-find-buffer. Doing the
- obivous, find file/buffer in another screen (creating if necessary).
- Poking around the NEWS file and the elisp code I cannot figure out
- what needs to be done. I have looked at display-buffer,
- get-screen-for-buffer, and x-create-screen but to no avail.
- Could someone point me in the right direction?
-
- Thanks for your time,

- P.S. (Guys at Lucid, I like what I see!!)
