Re: fix for redisplay!

Isn't one of the important points in a redisplay rewrite to do something a little more sensible with 2D formatting so that Bill Perry can write an even nicer w3.el, and images bigger than the frame can be scrolled sensibly, and maybe we might even get subwindows back? Speed is good. More speed, too! >>>>> "N" == N J Doye <nic(a)niss.ac.uk&gt; writes: N> One can not run an XEmacs (gnuclient) X window frame over a N> 28.8 modem.

I prefer `gnuclient -nw' because it starts faster and doesn't spend time futzing with icons, but using lbxproxy makes an X window frame usable (once the icons are downloaded) down to 14.4kbps for me (and it's actually lbxproxy talking over the modem line to an LBX-enabled xnest running on top of an ancient RedHat Sparc/Linux 4.0 X server on an even more ancient Sparc ELC). I haven't tried the experiment with the FSF's version of emacs; I never saw any reason to try using an X frame with it. -- University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences Tel/fax: +1 (298) 53-5091
