Complete list of what you've noticed please.  I could probably grep
for one, but I don't trust the fool^H^Hlks who wrote the Canna Lisp
code.  They have twisty little minds and love to leave Easter eggs
scattered through the code.  (See my -advocacy post for my views on
Japanese organic software.)

Sigh.  You can't.  The software wasn't designed with that in mind.  <a
href=bitch://piss.against.the.wind/organic/software>Agh!</a>  I'll see
what I can do about getting it fixed right, but it's gonna have to wait
until December.  It's a lot of code.  At least it's not Wnn/EGG you
want fixed :-/

I never saw this.  Sigh.  Do I really have to restore an XEmacs 20.4
tree?  Oh, the pain, the pain....  :-)
