Your suspicions are wrong. Anyway, we've already had this flame war. I did not subscribe to this site at that time. I did not propose to change the default back, so I was not trying to rediscuss something on which a decision had already been made. It is sad that people tend to start flaming when other people point out the fact that they are different from the majority in one respect or the other, and that they refuse to believe it and start suspecting all kinds of ulterior motives, even after several other people point out that same thing. Why is the fact that other people are different in some respects so hard to swallow (or believe)? There are at least two other people on this list who have said that their reactions to a blinking cursor are similar to mine. Sincerely, Luc. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
