-[?] Now has warnings like "Message 219 modified; flush changes? (yes or no)"
? is emacs mh-rmail
-The variables XUSERFILESEARCHPATH and XFILESEARCHPATH, which specify
- where X applications should find their app-default files (etc.), are now given a value in the
- global cshrc file. As part of the default Athena shell initialization process, these variables
- are given reasonable default values, or the default values are automatically appended to any
- existing values (as set in the user's ~/.environment file) for the variables.
This means that applications which use XAPPLRESDIR to specify app-default
files may have problems. The normal correction that needs to be made
is to set XUSERFILESEARCHPATH instead of XAPPLRESDIR.
(I think that's correct)

can use the Andrew HTML functionality, then check your files against
an HTML 3.2 validator (e.g.,
http://ugweb.cs.ualberta.ca/~gerald/validate/).
Bruce says we have weblint in the infoagents locker, too, if you want
to mention that.

-Although this feature is now available, it is disabled by default in
-this release to minimize the impact on users.
should we explain that they need to unsetenv NOMHNPROC and set up
$MHN, /usr/athena/etc/mhn_defaults, maybe .mhn_defaults? also point
to "man mhn"?
or should we save that for the advanced course in how to shoot yourself
in the foot?
