Ok, I don't know if this means I should post sooner or later, but it
seems that once I post I have breakthroughs. Anyway, I finally got a
style to appear on the menu, and I even got my package to appear on the
menu. The problem I am experiencing now is that I cannot seem to figure
out how to include the package into the style. My package works just
fine if I select Use Package, Sermon, sermon-base but it does not work
by just saying Document, Style, Sermon. Here is what I have:

$HOME/.TeXmacs/styles/sermon.ts:
----------
<TeXmacs|1.0.3.2>

                                                           ----------

Why is my package not being included when I choose Document, Style,
Sermon ?

Thanks!
