9/25    I asked this last night but some oaf deleted it:
        Does anyone know of a keyboard (either avilable new or easy to find
        used) which has a double-height enter key?
        \_ May I ask why you want the enter key to be twice as high?
           \_ 2-row enter keys are easier to find and more satisfying to hit
              -OP
        \_ http://pckeyboards.com (from memory, sorry if thats wrong) will build you
           a custom keyboard.
        \_ Do you want it to be twice as high but not twice as wide?  If
           so, try a French-Canadian keyboard.  I have one.  The enter
           key is really annoying. http://www.csua.org/u/h08

2/19    I program a lot by sshing to a Linux cluster.  So I'm used to using
        Xemacs to code.  This works fine from a Linux or Windows workstation,
        but sometimes I have to use a Mac.  On Mac, the meta is usually
        bound to option, but that often doesn't work over ssh for some reason.
        This makes using emacs a real pain.  Any suggestions on how to fix it?
        (Other than "use vi")

8/29    There was once a CSUA web page which runs an SSH client for logging
        on to soda.  Does that page still exist?  Can someone remind me of the
        URL please?  Thx.
        \_ what do you mean? instruction on how to ssh into soda?
           \_ No I think he means the ssh applet, which, iirc, was an applet
              that implemented an ssh v1 client.  I think this page went away

12/21   In Emacs, how do I make it so that it will resize its screen
        when the maximum resolution of my monitor changes? When I
        use my laptop, my emacs is too big (and I can't resize it
        because the bottom-right corner is not accessible).
        \_ Which OS?  Can't you drag the top border (not a corner) to resize
           the height to be smaller?

        the Next Thing; will be more than happy to kick out another $15

2/20    I'm using Cygwin/X on XP.  All the X indows (xterm, emacs)
        seem to have a keyboard repeat rate and a repeat delay that's different
        than the one XP uses for other Windows apps.  When I do "mode con
        rate=xx delay=yy", it only changes Windows apps but not the X apps.
        How do I change the keyboard repeat rate and delay for X?  Thanks.
        \_ man xset
