[Discuss] emacs-lucid update (I mean "upgrade", as I am on Debian)

2024-06-26 Thread Kent Borg
Seeing I had a new version of emacs I bit the bullet and quit my old 
sessions. And also rebooted, why not?


Something I have never noticed before: When I ran emacs again it pegged 
a couple of cores at 100%, for a decent amount of time, worrying me. But 
then it stopped. :whew: I restarted emacs anyway, just to be safe, have 
a clean start.


On a different machine, before quitting I stopped to notice there was an 
interestingly named buffer:


  *Async-native-compile-log*

Huh. Emacs jumped on the async bandwagon??


-kb


P.S. I also had recently configured screen (where I usually run emacs) 
to do its lockscreen. But how stupid. It is really more of a "lock 
terminal", it doesn't require a password to reattach to a screen 
session, which was my whole motivation, I sometimes have a root shell 
persisting inside screen. Grrr.

GNU Emacs has had async processing in various forms since at least as
far back as Emacs 18 which was mid-late 1980s. Native compile is
relatively new, though, with Emacs 28 if I'm not mistaken.

Interesting, thanks.

-kb, the Kent who is happy to use emacs for decades, all while avoiding 
becoming an expert.
