It sounds to me like the limits should be configurable, with a somewhat conservative default. Applications where larger dimensions might be appropriate (image viewers with provisions for panning, i.e.) can allow them in their own buffers using buffer-local settings of the variables limiting the size. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
