Subject: Please increase default value of message-log-max
Date: Fri, 6 Apr 2007 19:16:47 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <c241693f0704061616xa604ce5ha5485f268e0eb2a3@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi all,
The default value of message-log-max in my 6-month-old Emacs snapshot
is 50. This is not enough to hold all the messages Emacs emits at
startup on my PC. Could you please bump the default for
message-log-max to a larger value so that nobody will ever have to
change the variable name? I suggest 1024 or preferably even 8192,
since RAM is cheap and I can't think of any loss-of-privacy issues
this would cause.
Also, if you implemented this change, perhaps Elisp programmers would
start logging more information to *Messages*, which I think would be
handy when troubleshooting.
Regards,
Jason Spiro <jasonspiro4@gmail.com>
