Kevin - Thanks for the clarification, as I generally invoke an editor ad hoc for editing specific documents, and then dissolve it when I'm done. If you (and other emacs users) fire it up as part of your initial window invocations and leave it up during your entire working session then, yes, I can clearly see that there's no "cost" associated with using it to check the logs. Conversely, starting up a separate invocation of emacs just to watch the logs seemed to me to be a bit "expensive". I apologize for the confusion. (And, no, I don't have anything against emacs; I've used Xemacs now and then for specific tasks, and it's work beautifully for me).
Meanwhile, I'm off investigating 'swatch' :-). Cheers, Bayard _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
