The difference is that .emacs changes more frequently that your average package. This will happen once: You modify your .emacs and spend a few hours trying to figure out why the change isn't having any effect. You then kick yourself as you realize that it's using the byte compiled version. After that, you'll never byte compile again. -- Ken Goldman [EMAIL PROTECTED] 914-784-7646 _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
