You wish. I am putting appropriate assertions in right now and expect to report otherwise soon (the trace output is rather clear-spoken about this). I want to have this out of the way before I make an Emacs/AUCTeX/preview-latex representation at a major GNU/Linux conference Saturday and a workshop at a major TeX conference next week without having the demos crash. That's simply uncool. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
