- I wonder if anyone has thought about making emacs auto-save in
- the background? I usually works with large buffers and I become
- irritated everytime emacs "hangs" when it auto-save. Especially
- when it auto-saves over NFS. I don't want to disable the auto-saving
- because I think it is a nice feature auto-saving if the machine crashes.
-
- But maybe there is some problems I haven't tought about...?
