Well, if you have a directory whose name contains an icorrect UTF8 character (which happens often if you browse an SMB folder or an FTP folder which contains files created on Windows or on a UTF8-unfriendy distro), Emacs can't open the file. > > - It has weird keybindings (CTRL-W to cut, CTRL-Y to paste, nothing > > to > > copy, F10-f-s to save, F10-f-e to exit...) > > Save=CTRL-X CTRL-S > Exit=CTRL-X CTRL-C > SaveAs=CTRL-W > Copy= META-W > I didn't find them. SaveAs doesn't work for me though (CTRL-W cuts for me).

In fact, what happened is that when you selected "test", "test" went into the clipboard instead of "Blah" because X11 automatically copies what's selected.

I tried GOOGLE but didn't find good documentations. The thing is I just discovered jEdit and I must say that it doesn't for me everything that Emacs did, but is way easier to use and configure. It even has auto-indent ala Emacs. So, I think I'll keep using it now. Thanks anyway for your advice. > -- > Speed kills.
