I wanted to try myself, and I've downloaded emacs-23.2-3 from the curr branch. When I do start it via "/usr/bin/emacs -Q -l dbus", it results in the well known frozen state :-( Switching to the exp branch, there is no other package offer. "M-x emacs-version" returns "GNU Emacs 23.2.1 (i686-pc-cygwin, GTK+ Version 2.20.1) of 2010-10-02 on laptop". That looks like a recent build, but ... The binary has the following checksum: $ cksum /usr/bin/emacs 658187514 16254990 /usr/bin/emacs Using a (self-compiled) Emacs 24, there is no freeze. > Thanks for your help. > > Ken Best regards, Michael. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
