One way to see how working with disabled redisplay optimizations feels might be to intentionally disable the optimizations in the source code. (Which is, BTW, where my intuition comes from, only that I didn't disable any optimizations, but implement one after the other until the result was "fast enough", for me anyway. And, another BTW, redisplay optimization was _the_ major time sink and _the_ primary source of complexity, when rewriting redisplay, esp. under the ancillary condition of being compatible with Emacs 19's redisplay. I'm mentioning that only in case that r2l redisplay optimization will prove necessary.) In any case, I think it might be worth the experiment. Computers got noticeable faster, maybe the picture is different now than it was in the late '90s. _______________________________________________ Developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.arabeyes.org/mailman/listinfo/developer
