    Now that I've finished my mid-terms (and only one lab report to do
for the entire week!), I can start some serious pounding at my
AppleWorks 3.0 script for uemacs 3.11c.  Rather than taking the easy way
out and simply mimicking the keystrokes, I've started writing procedures
so that things like search-and-replace comes up with the same prompts.
There are a few things I can't do easily (like OA-1 thru OA-9 would be a
bitch to program), but it looks like it will be able to retain most of
the AppleWorks-style commands.
