Subject: ot: windows xemacs question
Date: Sat, 17 Mar 2012 14:53:07 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.BSF.2.01.1203171447560.7257@freire1.furyyjbeyq.arg> (raw)

I had a read of the setup instructions for emacs on windows and 
unfortunately so many of them involve modifying the windows registry.  A 
very experienced software specialist told me it's best never to use 
software that requires these modifications because sooner rather than 
later windows will crash and then the whole mess has to be reinstalled 
after that.  He had no idea about xemacs but he told me emacs and windows 
do not live happily on machines together.  So I'm wondering if xemacs 
might end up being any better and figured this being the closest list to 
emacs support I'm on that actually works to ask this question here.
