Xemacs and MetaPost

[Giulio Morgan <mickle@panix.com>]

I am using Xemacs 21.4 (testing), and it is installed without meta-mode.el,
which is installed, however, for emacs 20.7.

Is there a (good) reason for this, or is it safe to take meta-mode from CTAN and
install it in Util Buffers Files Tools Edit Search Mule Field Message MML Help

I am using Xemacs 21.4 (testing), and it is installed without meta-mode.el,
which is installed, however, for emacs 20.7.

Is there a (good) reason for this, or is it safe to take meta-mode from CTAN
and install it in the Xemacs loadpath?

Thanks for any help or advice.
