in re: Debian texmacs-1:1.0.5-2 Over the last two terms, I've used TeXmacs to do Computer Science lab writeups. The document becomes very long, and has places where I use a small font inside a \code inside a two-column layout, for programs and output. I don't know if that's where the slow-down is or not...
When I am typing near the tail end of the document, TeXmacs response to keystrokes is very sluggish. I can easily out-type it. Setting the page breaking to "sloppy" makes it a bit faster, but it's still a little too sluggish for my taste. What occurs to me is that it must be scanning for the reformat from all the way back at the start of the document, even though I have the document page type set to "Paper" rather than "Papyrus". Since the preceding pages are already "shipped out", why should it need to scan farther back than the top of the current page? If it did not do so, it would be much faster, wouldn't it? There are also occasional problems with page layout, where it will break a page in the middle, and put something on the next page that really ought to fit on the one before it. The one before it has a lot of blank space at the bottom. -- Karl Hegbloom <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Texmacs-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/texmacs-dev
