Dear Bill and Enrique,

I would be glad to incorporate any improvements of the TeXmacs interface
into the main distribution. Nevertheless, I would like to have the opinion
of Andrey Grozin, who wrote most of the current interface. I am a bit lost
in the numerous discussions on the subject.

Best wishes, --Joris
