This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team, not to your local site managers!! Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have translators to read other languages for them. Please describe as succinctly as possible: - What happened. - What you thought should have happened. - Precisely what you were doing at the time. Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have. ================================================================ Dear Bug Team! When running Xemacs version 21 remotely (displaying on my local X server) I have found that any multicharacter kills (such as kill-line, kill-word, kill-ring-save, etc.) are extremely slow (maybe 15-30 seconds per kill). I only see this delay when I am running over a DSL connection where the ping times to the remote system are on the order of 100 milliseconds or more. When my local machine is on the same LAN as the remote machine (much shorter ping times), I do not notice any unusual delay in multicharacter kills. I also do not see this problem when running Xemacs version 20. My local X server when using the DSL connection is Exceed 3D running under Microsoft Windows 98SE. When using the LAN, my local X server is also Exceed 3D but running under Microsoft Windows 2000. Yours, David --- Dr. David E.
