There is another inconvenience, one you may have noticed also -- upon visiting the TAGS file emacs complains about its size and requires confirmation before continuing. This is a bit of a nuisance for someone who mostly uses TAGS with big programs such as the Linux kernel. My scan of "customization buffer for group Etags" just now did not turn up a way to disable it. Is there a way?
