[climacs-devel] A couple questions

[Jacob Oursland]

Hey gang!

I'd like to say how awesome Climacs is, particularly that it is as  
responsive now as Emacs is.  Thanks for the hard work in that  
accomplishment!!

But, I do have a couple questions:
1.  What is the goal of Climacs?  Is it to be an Emacs clone?  Should  
elisp be the scripting language, or will it be an emacs-like tool?

2.  I'm not particularly satisfied with the color scheme.  I hack in  
Emacs using a color scheme rather similar to that of Turbo Pascal of  
the late 80s.  Where are the color schemes defined?  Is it in the  
files *-syntax.lisp?  If so, is there currently a plan to make that  
less hard-coded and perhaps schemable?

My current platform is Mac OS X 10.4.11 using SBCL (near latest cvs)  
with Christophe's CLX and cvs Climacs.  This configuration doesn't  
seem to have working scroll bars, but neither does Emacs (not good  
ones, anyhow). :P
