Hello Anyuone,
   Please bear with me as there is lots of line noise in my brain.

Anywyas, I just got v1.2 G1, and I noticed that the new EMACS has
two bugs.  At least, it has burned me two different ways, so I want
to know if anyone else experienced these problems.  First:
1) If you go to the top of a file, EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE when you
do the gGlobal Replace command (eg ESC-R) after it does this it
will "lock up", in other words you input no long inputs and other
things like this.  Second:
2) Occasionaly, again EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE when you go to the top
of an empty buffer and do an insert (eg ^X^I filename) the status
line says "reading filename" but then it locks up.

 Ok, I know these ocur only sporadically because I use EMACS all
the days and its only once in a while that it locks up, but generally
due to the above towo things (in fact ONLUY due to the above two,
ie it doesn';t lock up on anything else).

Question - is my emacs fragged, or has anyone else had the same
events happen??  Please reply via e-mail because I am FLAT (Fat,
Lazy, And Tired).

By the way, the new release of kick/work is in most respects
really nice.  Infominder is tres cool (thats French for: tres cool).
I also love the massive docs and the fact that Amiga.lib now has
int math entry points (ie IMulU, IDivU, etc).  This is good,
cause.... In the old days if you wanted to dispense (that means get
rid of, folks) with Lattice LC.lib and just use Astartup and Amiga.lib
you could get a MUCH SHORTER EXECUTABLE but you lost all int mult
and div cause lattice in its wisdom has functions do them!!!  But
now you can replace * and / with the IMul and IDiv and have the fun
benefits of mul/div without lc.lib overhead.  Good eats, cheap prices.

Again, if you you have experienced new Emacs lockups, could you let
me know?  Much thanks.
