Subject: 23.0.50; Tramp blocks Emacs when unconnected to server
Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2007 02:49:41 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ejgwy9fe.fsf@vaw.baug.ethz.ch> (raw)
Hi
A major annoyance of Tramp is that it blocks Emacs when the server is
not reachable. The symptoms are
o open file on remote host with Tramp, edit, save
o disconnect from network (like: get laptop sleeping, reconnect
somewhere else)
o close buffer visiting the remote file
The last action (closing the buffer) is not possible, and Emacs blocks
for a long time. C-g stops the unsuccessful communication
attempt. However it should be possible to close the buffer without
interaction with the remote server.
