I'd like C-x 4 0 to just do its job without mithering me with kill buffer `foo'? (yes or no), unless it's an actual changed buffer that's getting killed. Today's GNU Emacs CVS snapshot, Mon, 2005 Apr 25 09:44 UTC GNU Emacs 22.0.50.14 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.6.4) started with

[After running the same RMAIL for several days, deletions slow; but not immediately. Using the `emacs/src/emacs' executable of 2005 Mar 30.] I think you said it was spending most of the time in regexp matching. Is that right? If so, can you determine what regexp it spends most of its

Re: Overlay arrow in *compilation* and *grep* buffers

2005-04-25 Thread Richard Stallman
