Welcome to XEmacs-beta.  Newcomers are always welcome.

We sometimes work very fast, so it is helpful to keep up to date
with current changes.  The most up to date list of changes are
CHANGES-beta in the top level directory of the current beta.  More
detailed information is available in the ChangeLogs.  It is a good
idea to read the beta release announcements, they are intended to
save testers from grief.

That is the idea.  It isn't working in "Helsinki" due to an oversight
on my part.

That is my intention.  Per's custom code already supports coexistence, 
so does (or did) the obsolete XEmacs options code.
