A common problem here is that Emacs grows indefinitely, hogging more and more system resources. Does anyone have a solution to this problem? (Or any reasons why it can't/shouldn't be done) Thanks. ---Kayvan Kayvan Sylvan @ Transact Software, Inc. -*- Mountain View, CA (415) 961-6112 Internet: mrspoc!kayvan@apple.com UUCP: ...!{apple,pyramid,mips}!mrspoc!kayvan
