Norm,

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but this is dependent on quail, which is included in the leim package. This typically (always?) requires a variety of emacs with MULE support. Which in turn precludes it's use with Xemacs on Windows (according to http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&selm=87661ovgfq.fsf@tleepslib.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp)

If this is correct: Bummer.

Norm,

I'm wondering whether it'd be possible to have the actual glyphs appear in the Unichar menu, next to the names.

Michael: I experimented briefly with getting the glyphs rendered in the menu and discovered that the font used in the menu seems not to support Unicode. Ah, the irony.

I don't see it mentioned anywhere, but if you load xmlunicode.el it may give an error "Symbol's function definition is void: caddr". This can be resolved by using "(require 'cl)". Thanks to the helpful folks on #emacs for pointing this out to me.

The script yahoo2mbox interfaces with Yahoo Groups and leaves you with a lovely, lovely mbox-format archive file. You can then use your favorite tools on it. Yahoo does limit the amount you can download at once, but you can run the program repeatedly on several days and get incremental increases. It's a huge win.
