I can only offer a comment on this bit!

Now, I'm of the vim/gvim school, but I'm pretty sure that emacs isn't
telling you that the input and output changeset are in Unix format, but
that it is working in Unix format: no *nix uses the ^M natively, so
seeing it is a sure sign that the file isn't completely in Unix format
(if it's from a conventional -- that is, unaltered, Squeak, it'll be
spitting out code in Mac format). Indeed, it may be spitting out your
new changeset if you've edited it. 

In gvim, at least, it's possible to alter the rc file so that it'll
accept DOS, unix and Mac filetypes. I'd be pretty stunned if there was
not a similar mechanism in emacs.

HTH a little ;-)

Cheers

John
