So I use mutt running inside emacs (M-x term) and use EDITOR=emacsclient. So that whenever mutt calls up the editor it switches me to a new emacs buffer where I can type up my message (I also have it set up so that the new buffer is in mail mode). Bijan
OK. I never use emacs, so this may sound like a dumb question. You can run mutt *inside* of emacs? How? Why not just run it in a regular xterm? Besides, I thought emacs was a text editor (hence the emacs/vi flame wars). -Roberto
