Re: XEmacs and hot laptops


Larry,

Your email client is configured to quote raw e-mail addresses in
replies, I think it would be good if you'd change that. Now my email address is visible for all spam harvesters to colect......

When I run cygwin XEmacs on my laptop after some time I have to close it as my laptop becomes very hot (and the fan goes non-stop and lot noisier than usual). So I work on porting some latex related stuff that works only on cygwin to native XEmacs. I wouldn't do that but I am afraid not to fry my laptop. Does anybody have this problem too?



This sounds a bit off-topic for this list since it's clearly a hardware issue. While it's possible that Cygwin's XEmacs works your processor more
than other programs you're using, the fact that it may cause your machine
to get overly hot is a factor of the hardware, not the software. If this is really a concern for you, you'll want to contact your hardware manufacturer to see if they can help get your machine to run cooler.
