So what you say is that I should wait until the next version of Emacs?
21.3.x (x=?) or 21.4? (I try to avoid CVS, I got enough with alpha and
beta software as it is... And I can wait if I know that it will be
fixed within reasonable time.) What is your educated guess at the
timeframe for such a release?

I made a screendump,
<URL:http://hem.bredband.net/steverud/Temp/screendump-2.jpg>

The file I try to find is in the ~/Rollspel/Äventyr/Idéer directory.

(BTW, is "still" the convention of <URL:xxx> the preferred way of
inserting URLs or should one use some other method - mostly people
just pastes it in, i.e. xxx, but some do <xxx>. I assume the former is
a MS Lookout habit.)
