5/22    Speaking of Treos, any recommendations for portable keyboards?
        \_ no.  There was a time when ThinkOutside has this triple-fold
           full-size keyboard.  Since then, I couldn't find any keyboard
           that is full-size.  When I say full size, I means 19mm between
           keys.   Most keyboard now are designed by Asians who don't really
            type the way we do... for me, i don't see the point of carrying
           an extra keyboard when it's not full sized.
           \_ hard to beat the cool factor of the I-tech Virtual Laser Keyboard
              http://www.virtual-laser-keyboard.com
              \_ The cool is undeniable, but what's the typing experience like?
           \_ How do they type?

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?

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
