I leave X11 running all the time because I use several applications that call for it. However, I should have been more specific and said "disk footprint." I've got an old iMac with a 4GB drive and the Carbon Emacs install just takes up more space than I can afford. >> - and haven't found any functional differences- except that the >> scroll wheel works under the Aqua environment but not under X11. > > Scroll-wheel works ok for me in X11 emacs 21.3.50.1. I can't get it to work for whatever reason. Not a big deal. I have a two button mouse with scroll wheel, and X11 Emacs does accept clicking for scroll wheel for the middle mouse button, which is more important to me.
