Hi again,
   Note that this isn't hugely important (obviously), esp. since I
know you're always busy. Feel free to ignore, but I'm commenting just
in case it matters ....

Okay, tried again (DOSEMU), added C:\EMACS\GNU\EMACS\BIN to %PATH%
just in case (didn't help). Still crashed when typing 'e' (edit) under
Dired (C-x d) on blah.sh file (though most other files are okay). And
*.mod still isn't recognized by default for font-lock. IIRC, Emacs
needs (at compile time?) to know in advance what *.el font lock files
are available, hence people always seem to have to manually do "add
alist" (or whatever, I forget) in their .emacs / _emacs file in order
for it to work automagically. (Most others, e.g. Pascal, work fine by
default.) Oh, and '\' is treated as a C escape, so that also messes up
font lock for the rest of the file, heh, oh well.

Other than these (very) minor quibbles, it works! So I'm not
complaining. (Though I don't have any 512 MB files to test, heh.)
