I keep running into the phrase "when you are operating under Windows" like "when you are debugging under windows" EMACS works perfectly as far as I can tell (there is even an icon) from Windows 3.11. But I thought this was really working "under DOS" in this case. Not so???? (The disk access is noticeably faster--I have Windows set for 32-bit access with a 4MB cache.) So when you are running a DOS program such as EMACS you have the problems that might come in from "operating under Windows"???? I'm just trying to be sure when I read about these problems I know what is being referred to. I always thought there were "Windows" programs and DOS programs that run under DOS but just as a convenience can be called up from Windows--this may not be so. Ralph
