Since I'm not working on XP myself, I couldn't test this and the reactions of the others lasted a bit. But: it works: the display-problems are gone when the hardware-acceleration is turned lower. (desktop/Properties/Settings/Advanced.../Troubleshooting). Thanks! Regards, Geert Ribbers -----Original Message----- From: Dr Francis J.

Have you tried changing the various graphics acceleration options accessible via display properties? Maple (another application that I use) is prone to display problems, and I find that turning down the graphics acceleration usually helps. In fact, I currently run my Win XP system will all graphics acceleration turned off, which doesn't seem to slow down anything that I want to do and avoids some Maple display problems.

Performance issues on running macros with Windows Emacs 21.2

Good afternoon,
I have noticed a significant performance drop between emacs 20.x and emacs 21.2 running macros as the latter actually displays the result of the changes done by the macro on the screen.
Does anyone of you a mode to launch emacs macros in a background mode (that would not display and would preferably not use Windows copy/paste buffer)?
Thank you very much for your help.
Regards,
ALEXANDRE DOLIQUE

The short answer is "no" and I haven't noticed such a difference. But I have noticed that Flyspell slows macro playback down to a crawl. Do you experience the poor performance even in Fundamental Mode? Also, within the past several weeks there was a discussion about how to make Emacs kill ring not alter the Windows clipboard.

Just downloaded it and installed to try again what I've tried (unsuccessfully)
with the last several versions. And it still doesn't work.
In 20.3.6.1 (which I still use) I can do the following in telnet mode:
SQL> select * from dailyvalues
cont> where portname='PATSY'
cont> LIMIT TO 10 ROW;
PERFDATE PORTNAME PERFDATE_ID SUMMARY COUNTRY ISO PORTVALUE EQUITYVALUE CASH DIVIDENDS DIVIDENDS_ INTEREST INCOME
EXPENSE INCOME_UNR EXPENSE_UNR PERF_FUDGE BUYCOST TRANSFER_VALUE SELLNET SELLNET2 COMMTAXBUY
COMMTAXSELL WITHINDAYBUY WITHINDAYBUY2 WITHINDAYSELL WITHINDAYSELL2 CONTRIBUTIONS WITHDRAWALS CASHTRANS BHEDGEGL
SHARE_POOLFUND_EXP SHARE_POOLFUND_INC INTERPORT_TRANSFER_IN INTERPORT_TRANSFER_OUT EVAL_ADJUST_CARRYOVER MGTFEE
I didn't hit RETURN after each line of the sql - I used arrow-down. And
then when I submitted the whole thing, the 'cont>''s were added automatically
And MOST IMPORTANT, when I do command recall in the telnet buffer,
I can back all the multiple lines of a single SQL query as one piece.
In all versions after 20.3.6.1 (that I've tried), including 21.2 that I just tried
now, I get the following:
SQL> select * from dailyvalues
where portname='DOLL' limit to 1 row;
select * from dailyvalues
where portname='DOLL' limit to 1 row;
^
%SQL-F-AMB_KEYWORD, Ambiguous keyword abbreviation
SQL>
I believe the telnet mode relies on comint mode underneath (I've looked
through the code some). So maybe it's just a usage problem, except that
in the newer versions I need to set some lisp variable that will give me the
behavior I want? Here's hoping.

.emacs doesn't execute

I am running Emacs on three machines: Sun Solaris Unix 8.0, Windows 2000, & Windows Me. All machines use the same .emacs. Only the Windows Me machine doesn't seem to executing my .emacs. The other machines my customizations work OK. I lost my hard drive on that machine (I did keep my data, but lost the registry) & had to re-install everything. I tried running addpm.exe again, but it didn't help. Any suggestions?

Try defining a local variable in your windows environment, HOME, pointing to the folder in which your .emacs lives.

If his
problem is that emacs isn't reading his .emacs, then setting HOME *IN* his
.emacs won't help, since it's not being read in the first
place.
Anyway, I'm
not sure what OS you're using, but if it's Windows NT, 2K, or XP, then you go
into the Settings->Control Panel->System, and dig around in there until
you find the "Environment Variables" tab. (It might be hidden behind an
"Advanced setting" button.)
Once you
find that, either find the "HOME" entry, see where it points and put your .emacs
file there, *OR* change or add the entry to point to C:\ or D:\, or wherever
you're comfortable it being. Then put the .emacs where you set HOME to
be.
