Yes, but the effects of these deletions on lessening the bloat factor are likely negligible. I believe it impossible to unbloat Emacs without removing its greatest virtues. "The bloat stops here" is not the credo I like all that much, unless I know exactly what is meant by it. True. Note, however, that 21.0 startup will be very slow -- slower than 20.2, I think. I am still optimistic, except for the packages. They are problematic. -- Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic(a)srce.hr&gt; | Student at FER Zagreb, Croatia --------------------------------+-------------------------------- You have an unusual magnetic personality.
