Great. This a really good news and can improve a lot the performance
of best GUI, IMHO, that I found for Maxima.

The version I have in Debian, see below, does not come with these
features. I installed by myself and I found it very useful but with
some little problems. I suggest that these Emacs modes be the default
ones in substituition to the old maxima-mode.  In this way we can
discuss, unite and improve these modes. 

Another suggestion is for Camm to add this ASAP to the Debian unstable
distribution.
