If I try to run demacs under Desqview/X, it reboots my machine! This is with Desqview 1.02 and demacs 1.2.0. Also, has anyone else had problems with file locking? Many times when I attempt to edit a file, I get the message "Cannot load file "userlock"" and demacs refuses to change the file. Other times it works fine. I also get a lot of "File has changed since last read. Save anyway?" stuff, which I know is incorrect since this is a truly single-user machine. -- Walter Hunt walter@optimla.optimage.com OptImage Interactive Services Company, L.P. walter@optimla.aimla.com 11040 Santa Monica Blvd., Suite #300 netcom!optimla!walter Los Angeles, Ca. 90025 (310) 445-5718
