Hi
A major annoyance of Tramp is that it blocks Emacs when the server is
not reachable. The symptoms are
o open file on remote host with Tramp, edit, save
o disconnect from network (like: get laptop sleeping, reconnect
somewhere else)
o close buffer visiting the remote file
The last action (closing the buffer) is not possible, and Emacs blocks
for a long time. C-g stops the unsuccessful communication
attempt. However it should be possible to close the buffer without
interaction with the remote server.
In GNU Emacs 23.0.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.11.6)
of 2007-09-16 on yak

It is not clear to me what Tramp attempts to write when the buffer has
been saved.
Could you, please, set debug-on-quit to t? Next time you interrupt
Tramp in such a situation, there shall be a backtrace. Please provide this.
Best regards, Michael.

I do not know what you mean by "close the buffer". Do you mean to kill it
with C-x k ?
