Bonkers. I removed all instances of emacs from the Debian 9 system and purged my .cache directory.
Lilypond-invoke-editor still insists on running emacsclient. EDITOR is set to gvim. Gvim is gvim - its not set to an alternate to emacs or anything silly like that. Syslog shows: eb 23 19:36:58 debian org.gnome.Nautilus[1370]: sh: 1: emacsclient: not found Feb 23 19:36:58 debian org.gnome.Nautilus[1370]: sh: 1: emacs: not found Feb 23 19:36:58 debian org.gnome.Nautilus[1370]: sh: 1: emacsclient: not found Feb 23 19:36:58 debian org.gnome.Nautilus[1370]: sh: 1: emacs: not found Feb 23 19:36:58 debian org.gnome.Nautilus[1370]: lilypond-invoke-editor (GNU LilyPond) 2.19.82 What does Nautilus have to do with any of this? That looks like the culprit, but it's beyond my dim wit to figure this out. [As to why emacs has started running unacceptably slowly, it jut may be an issue with emacs 27 on Debian, whose official version is 24. Just maybe.] Andrew On Sat, 23 Feb 2019 at 18:34, Andrew Bernard <andrew.bern...@gmail.com> wrote: > Well now I am officially going nuts.
