The first thing I note is that loading a PDF file, it appears a buffer suggesting something: 'q'... 'k'... ... but this happens only for less than a second and I cannot read and say what it contains. After this, the PDF file is shown correctly and in the mini buffer I find the suggestion C-c C-c 'to toggle between editing o viewing...' and typing C-c C-c gives the text to edit, i.e. we toggle from view to text mode. On the contrary, loading a PS file shows it as a text and only after C-c C-c, it is shown as document, i.e. we toggle from text to view mode. Why this different behaviour when loading PS files? Another thing I observe is that, using the mouse wheel, one can only scroll a single page of the document and not between a page to the next. Is this to be expected? On Cygwin I have found that the cache (a directory called 'docview1006') is stored in the Windows $TEMP (usually /c/DOCUME~1/.../IMPOST~1/Temp) directory and not in the Cygwin /tmp dir. But on Cygwin, should Emacs have the same behaviour as on linux?! (many Cygwin applications store their files in /tmp and do not know Windows $TEMP!) After closing the files (PDF/PS...), jusched.log is created in the Windows $TEMP: ---------------------------------------------------- Fri Jan 04 23:45:48 2008 :: Either not a Win2000, XP platform or Non-admin user or GetModuleFilename failed or Error Opening JavaUpdate Keys. ---------------------------------------------------- I am using Emacs on Cygwin (XP) as Non-admin user: should we be worried about jusched.log and what it contains? Loading JPEG files (pictures) one can scroll them vertically: How can one scroll horizontally? Otherwise the pictures appear truncated on right margin (even maximizing the Emacs frame/window).
