|(1) I run ksh in emacs mode, and use ^U as kill, and ^C as intr. Under
| mgr, under some circumstances, these don't work. I appear to
| get echoed the mgr font character in '\003' (something like a
| backwards E) rather than an interrupt, for instance. Has anyone
| else seen anything like this?
Nope.
|(2) How can I get a new window made with the menu rather than alt-^N
| to be in my font rather than the too-big system font?

|(3) How can I get system menus in my font rather than the too-big
| system font?
A couple of possibilities:
1. Recompile MGR with a different default font (see DEFAULT_FONT in
src/Makefile).
2. Use the -F <default-font> option when starting mgr.
|(4) Has anyone contemplated writing a 3b1 emulation library for things
| like the window operations, the bit-blts etc? It would be nice
| to be able to take the source of 3b1 applications, like cheapdraw,
| and get them to wokr under mgr.
Considered it? Yes. Done it? Not me. :-)
