Probably an Emacs-specific support forum would have been a good choice, assuming you used Google first and didn't find anything. HN certainly was not. I didn't downvote you, but it looks a lot like you didn't try to do your own homework, because it's not that hard. Either one of the places you mentioned would have been better. That's probably why you were downvoted.
Thank you, Andrew. I guess I can also see why I could be downvoted, though it is sad that those with downvoting powers don't let not-so-thrilling comments "just sink" to the bottom of the page instead of downvoting, which in my mind should be left to destructive, offensive or just completely unrelated stuff. Best regards.
