I checked it with GNU emacs and it is nice, on the other hand I admit
that at least on my laptop, this function is quite slow, that is why I
usually use templates when creating a new document. In any case thanks,
and as far as I am concerned please commit.

Ok, I have in the coming month very little time to look into that, so I
stick with GNU emacs.

BTW right now I use Xemacs just when I need to display graphics via the
x-symbol package. I could use preview-latex to display those in GNU
emacs but it is not the same, and iimage mode, a minor mode, which
displays images in the buffer, does not allow to rescale images. However
it seems that not very many people are missing such a feature.......
