One to do my root editing jobs, one for my me editing jobs. The two same emacses running all day. RMS> If there is a good reason and that is really necessary for you, I didn't really want to, but I thought "that's life". I have the root one with red background to remind me I'm root. Can you pack all this into the same cheeseburger for me? RMS> maybe we can do something to correct the underlying problem RMS> so you can use just one. I mean even a measly emacsclient from a different user id window seems unsuccessful these days, XAUTHORITY non withstanding. I dunno boss, how do the pros cope with their root and non root personalities? -- http://jidanni.org/ Taiwan(04)25854780
