Gnah.  Hm.  I think I didn't write "address@hidden".  So that makes
the munging suspicious.

The above looks good.  Hm.  What does C-h v file-name-handler-alist
RET say after you do the above?

Hm.  I'm now testing XEmacs myself.  First of all, it seems that I
have the Tramp XEmacs package installed, which conflicts with the CVS
version of Tramp.  So I removed it and started XEmacs again.  But it's
still not working right: the square brackets format is mentioned in
file-name-handler-alist, instead of the unified format.
