+	I suppose this has to be discussed but although I may have confused some of you, I 
+	insist on the following formatting conventions:-
+
+	<ol>
+		<p><li>All white space to left of a line shall be tabs.
+		<p><li>A tab shall be 4 characters (unless it is 8) (I use 4). Anything you see
+		with multiples of 2 spaces will be reformatted next time I edit it. 
+		<p><li>You <b><u><i>WILL</i></u></b>use the one true (documented) bracing method as 
+		documented in K & R and all the 'official' perl books.
+	</ol>
+
+	<p>I have been experimenting with editors and tabwidths and have settled on 
+	  <a href="http://www.xemacs.org">XEmacs</a>. You can get a copy from the 
+	  <a href="ftp://contrib.redhat.com">RedHat Contrib</a> ftp site for your version
+	  of Redhat. I use the following parameters in my .emacs file.

+	of its habits are rather peculiar, but you can either switch them off or learn to live with them
+	as I did. I installed my copy in <b>/usr/lib/xemacs/site-lisp</b>. 
+
+	<p>XEmacs runs perfectly happily on the console as well as under X.
