As an aside, let me just mention that emacs for windows must somehow be cygwin-aware. When I start emacs from a normal Windows command prompt or from a shortcut, it saves .emacs in c:\ But if I start emacs from cygwin (no, I do not have emacs for cygwin installed, it _is_ the same emacs I am starting from cygwin, that I started from the command prompt and the desktop just before), it saves .emacs in c:\cygwin\home\david\ Cool! /David
