Preventing RSI by using xemacs via ange-ftp. And banging their heads on their desks, because editing a DTML method and saving it changes its meta type into a DTML document :-(.

This is fixable by customizing efs-make-backup-files.

You just nuke it by setting it to nil, or what? I mean, it helps, thanx, but that's a rude way of talking to my system and I was wondering, whether you might be using something more subtle than:

(setq efs-make-backup-files nil)

What's so rude about that? It only affects EFS--local backup files are stil made. Emacs was made to be able to customize behavior by setting variables. If you don't like editing your .emacs you can use the XEmacs 'customize' menu. -Doug -- Doug McNaught doug@mcnaught.org http://www.mcnaught.org/~doug
