Switching to Mule may cause you some annoyance, because things that used to "just work" (mainly 8-bit encodings other than ISO 8859/1) will now require configuration. On the other hand, although apparently rare, what you are seeing is a crash. Induced by an intentional assertion, but nonetheless an involuntary exit: do not pass Go, do not collect $200, do not save buffers or update persistent data. You may or may not get a decent autosave of open files (we do try to autosave during a crash, but since XEmacs is by definition in a state it cannot properly handle during a crash, we can't be sure that it will work). Since you're already using the beta, maybe it's worth the risk to you to stay with the environment you're used to, and possibly help debug the crash. But the latter is not so important, as I'm pretty sure the developers have reproduced it. -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
