I updated my source tree, made world, rebuilt the kernel, downloaded the latest ports tree, and installed emacs. When I type "emacs" at the console, it takes about five seconds for the program to start up. I remember it did this the last time I installed, too, and at some point, it stopped doing that, coming up in the blink-of-an-eye I'm used to. It behaved the same the time (I installed) before that as well. I just never figured out what it was that I did that made it start coming up normally before. Anybody know what I need to do to make it start quickly again? BTW, the .emacs file I'm using is the same one I was using before, so the problem isn't in there. -- Derrick Baumer To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
