Well, anybody can call himself a true emacs user (even though I myself is arguing that Haziz shouldn't try to turn Emacs into a "traditional" IDE). > The Makefile should launch any tests needed. Unit tests: yes, definitely. But there are lots of things that don't fit into the Makefile. Personally, I always run a shell in a separate terminal emulator (or many in a screen(1) session). I'm sure I could have used M-x shell instead, but that's how I learned it. /Jorgen -- // Jorgen Grahn O o .
