Did ps tell you? How are you launching Emacs? What is this file? Which version is Emacs? Can you launch it with -q and does it behave the same? If yes, can you launch it with -Q and does it still behave the same? If yes again, I'd recommend to install Mac OS X again. Because something fundamental would be defective. -- Greetings Pete 0 %-/\_// (*)(*)
