Regarding emacs auto-save times, you can set auto-save-interval and auto-save-timeout. I use the following functions to adjust auto-save, when, for instance, I am working on battery power and don't want my disk to spin up. interval - number of keyboard characters between saves timeout - number of idle seconds before auto save (defun auto-save-never () (interactive) (setq auto-save-interval 0) (setq auto-save-timeout 0)) (defun auto-save-defaults () (interactive) (setq auto-save-interval 300) (setq auto-save-timeout 960)) (defun auto-save-less () (interactive) (setq auto-save-interval (* 2 auto-save-interval)) (setq auto-save-timeout (* 2 auto-save-timeout))) jj - Subcription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" on the first line of the message body to discuss-request at blu.org (Subject line is ignored).
