I've noticed when using Epoch 4.2 that screen refresh logic is very
sub-optimal when compared to Emacs 18.58.

Is there some setting or #define that needs to be done to restore the
Emacs-style  screen refresh logic? I don't see one, as it would appear that
the screen display logic is pretty well completely new for Epoch.

The reason for asking is that it makes a significant difference when you're
using Epoch on the end of a 9.6 kbit XRemote link. Operations which used to
use the scroll-region or insert-mode editing now redrway the entire display
region. A hugh slowdown at 9.6.

please response via email; i'll summarize and re-post.
thanks,
