I just let Windows use the default colors, but it turns out that I don't use Emacs on Windows very much. I mainly use Windows as an X-server for applications such as Emacs running on real systems. > Since, even on MS-Windows, you could have a CYGWIN build using XFree86 > server. I have not tried it on CYGWIN though. It works fine, but personally I like running the native Emacs for Windows. I mean, X is OK, but a native Windows application is better. Besides, CygWin puts you in that hinky simulated Unix disk that doesn't agree with the real file system. Anyone have some Emacs code to help with that little Snafu? It all seems so reasonable until you run into the cases where two applications don't agree on what a file's name is. -don _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
