Re: auto-save questions and suggestions

FWIIW, here is my the code from my .emacs as it pertains to auto-save. It has been a long time since I messed with it (since April according to the changelog). As the comment says, I could only get auto-save running under NT by using the hash mode. I cannot remember what the problem was..... ;; The auto-save.el package puts all autosave files in one place (when running-windoze ;; Only hashing seems to work (setq auto-save-hash-p t) ;; XEmacs has already loaded auto-save, so we need to check the ;; directory by hand. (auto-save-check-directory 'auto-save-hash-directory)) ;; Now that we have auto-save-timeout, let's crank this up ;; for better interactive response. (setq auto-save-interval 2000) -- Sean MacLennan Just crank that volume to the point of pain. Ottawa, Canada Why waste good music on a brain? http://www.storm.ca/~seanm (Spinal Tap)
