That's really great. I'm an XEmacs user myself. I'd really like to get
your (X)Emacs code in the cvs repository, probably as a subdirectory of
the maxima module. We are going to rearrange files for the 5.9 series,
so where we put it right now is not too important. Is it OK with you to
put your stuff in cvs? Do you have an account on sourceforge?

I'd really like to get debugging working under other lisps for the 6.0
release. I don't know yet if it will be possible.
