Hi John,

please re-read my reply which you quote above.  I did explain that  
most other modes do not need this special treatment because in most  
modes, printing characters are bound to self-insert-command.  However,  
XEmacs does cater for modes that redefine normal letters etc, but it  
does s in an icomplete way.
