WINDOZE 4.1 (98), open DOZE box, run emacs, "C-x C-f e:/a/1 RET" (read in 
the file e:/a/1) which is 1MB, "C- " (set mark), "M->" (goto end), "C-w" 
(kill-region). Now the cursor changes to a timeglass and the machine is 
completely stuck. Not even C-Alt-Del works.

Sometimes, after "C-w", the DOZE box's screen is corrupted.

emacs is the DJGPP one from a simtel mirror (probably the latest one, unless
there has been a new upload since 990220).

Any ideas?

Need more inforamtion? Just ask.


Sigh,
