        I said that. And, I reiterate: for people running Debian, the
 solution I detailed is better than setting the env variables.

        What's special about level 3? (I think that is indeed the
 default setting for my Debian boxes, but I don't see the
 relevance). Whether in the console, on in a windowing system, I tend
 to sue Emacs, Gnus, and w3-el
