It just froze for couple of minutes (2 to 3 mins) and opened the file. What surprises me is, the same file when I open in XEmacs (latest beta), it took less than 5 seconds. I see a very big performance difference in this regard. with regards, dhruva -- Dhruva Krishnamurthy Home: http://www.geocities.com/gnued/
