As I primarily use Emacs to run Orgmode and I find the list of Emacs options rather confusing, can anyone here suggest which is the best option to install. The key choices seem to be Emacs 22 or 23 with or without GTK. But there is also just an "emacs" option which is described as an Emacs 23 meta package. I realise this may well be an Ubuntu or Emacs question, but as I said my main use for Emacs is Orgmode, so I think some advice from here may be useful. So any help would be appreciated. Many thanks, Graham
