"Customizable" means you can change the definitions of XEmacs
commands. For example, if you use a programming language in which
comments start with `<**' and end with `**>', you can tell the XEmacs
-comment manipulation commands to use those strings (*note Comments::.).
-Another sort of customization is rearrangement of the command set.
-For example, you can set up the four basic cursor motion commands (up,

When there are multiple, tiled XEmacs windows on a single XEmacs
frame, the XEmacs window receiving input from the keyboard has the

fast response, while giving hesitant users maximum feedback. You
can change this behavior by setting a variable (*note Display

* If you issue a command that cannot be executed, XEmacs may print
