The trouble is, I want something to override all Registry settings, precisely when I'm in window mode. So I can test some bug, for example, without my Emacs.Background, Emacs.Foreground and Emacs.Geometry settings getting in the way. > looking at w32_make_rdb(), --xrm may work on w32 to override > registry settings? (untested). That works, but it is awfully ugly if you have many Registry settings. I'd like a simple way to just say "no Registry settings AT ALL". I can workaround now by running Emacs with a script doing emacs -Q -xrm Emacs.Geometry: -xrm Emacs.Foreground: -xrm Emacs.Background: but it is a PITA. Juanma
