TeX styles, (we must link it in texfmt directory, and, * in case teTeX rerun texhush) * 2. .el files (when adding emacs/xemacs) * * May be we must create some stuff, as windows registry, which * holds the name of actions and variable. * (And allow read envirowment variables to shell during boot) * * P.S. I cc:-ed his to freebsd-ports, to stimulate discussion about * this. Sorry, I have no idea what you are talking about here. ;) Satoshi
