I have it enabled by default, but will disable it for certain buffers where it doesn't make sense, like an sql buffer that is a postgress command line :) > As someone suggested earlier, I use revision control (cvs in my case) > for all of my important files. That was me :) revision control doesn't save you if the power to you system goes away mid-edit thought... And auto-save buffer will help in that case. Auto-save buffers are also cleaned up every time you actually do save the file, so there's seldom a mess to clean up manually. > On a side note, I use vim when I "have to" or when it is more > convenient than emacs, like when logging in remotely to a server or > when making a quick configuration file change. I will occasionally use whatever 'vi' points to on a system for things like this. However, by and large, emacs is everywhere, and loading up emacs -nw in an ssh session on a remote system isn't to painful... -- Seeya, Paul _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
