Dan,

Thanks so much for .50.

No problem.

I now have this problem when I run xemacs over ssh tunneling from another
computer.  It didn't used to happen, and it doesn't if I use, e.g., MI-X.
When I try to cut anything in xemacs, I get the error message contained in
xerror (attached) and xemacs freezes.

I think you have the generic problem with OpenSSH 3.8 and trusted X11 tunneling. See the FAQ for the answer.

Also, any easy things I can do to help the codebase?  I have some amount of
experience in cs type stuff...

Well, the To-Do list is on the website:

http://x.cygwin.com/devel/todo.html

However, none of those are particularly easy tasks. I want to engage you in this project since you are showing some interest, so I am going to go update that To-Do list with some more realistic tasks now. I will write again when I have updated it.

Harold
