My suspicion is that the way it's done now in emacs 19 will still work as well as it did before, which is probably fine for everything but NFS. Using maillock would fix the problem completely, but will probably require some code weaselry. Unfortunately, the policy says to check the implementation in maillock to see if you're compatible, and the manpage for maillock says to see lockfile_create(3), which doesn't exist. I'll have to UTLSL, but I may release an initial package before doing all that. Things won't be any worse than they are now, and then then I can see about fixing both emacsen. -- Rob Browning <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP fingerprint = E8 0E 0D 04 F5 21 A0 94 53 2B 97 F5 D6 4E 39 30 -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
