For what it's worth, I moved all my Windows to one workspace and killed sDesk, and I still see the problem. I also noticed that in my clicking back and forth, if I clicked back on the XEmacs frame by clicking on the title bar, it had no effect. It seemed to only make a difference if I clicked inside the frame, in one of the XEmacs windows. Loading a 10-line Java source file (JDE enabled) took about 20 seconds going through this process, almost all of it spent in the font-lock progress panel. -- =================================================================== David M.
