[OS X Emacs] column editing

Hmm.  Then these instructions about cursor color in Preferences.el  
don't seem to have the correct effect.  The cursor is still red in a  
read-only buffer.  Tom

;;; CUA mode indications

;; As mentioned above, the cursor will blink when the global mark is

;; cursor colors to indicate overwrite mode and read-only buffers.
;; For example, the following setting will use a RED cursor in normal
;; (insertion) mode in read-write buffers, a YELLOW cursor in
;; overwrite mode in read-write buffers, and a GREEN cursor read-only
;; buffers:
;;
;;  (setq CUA-mode-normal-cursor-color "red")
;;  (setq CUA-mode-overwrite-cursor-color "yellow")
;;  (setq CUA-mode-read-only-cursor-color "green")
