I think you made your opinion on this issue quite clear before, even in the same thread where I discussed adding the warning, so it's a bit... silly? ridiculous? for you to suddenly show such indignation. That said, if you cool off a bit, perhaps you could wait until the delayed warning issue is decided, and then we can change the warning so it still exists, but users can deactivate it from their .emacs...

Well, Spain is nowhere near the States in this regard (and I proposed and added the warning) so I think your analysis is... silly? ridiculous? out of the line? > Emacs need not fear a lawsuit in this case - and its users deserve better= than > being beat over the head with such silliness. The users you are trying to protect can avoid that warning with C:> ren _emacs .emacs Hard, isn't? =C2=A0 =C2=A0 Juanma
