Does the latest 21.4 version of emacs come without the annoying blinking cursor? ( I just tried to compile it, unssuccessfully. ) I 've used emacs with the "-nw" flag for years because it's much faster, almost as fast as vi. To me, using the full-blown windowing system is not an option, even on a fast computer.
