To be clear, I use one of the GUI versions of emacs for windows. C-spc works fine there.
I'd like to play with Urbit - Yarvin and his goals are interesting enough that I'm willing to spend a few hours playing around.
- blaenk 10y agoWould you mind elaborating on what emacs in particular you're using? I use and love emacs but unfortunately the times I've tried to use it on windows it's been extremely unresponsive.
- avtar 10y agoHave you tried this one? https://sourceforge.net/projects/emacsbinw64/files/release/ https://sourceforge.net/projects/emacsbinw64/files/release/ It's worked for me fairly well.
- blaenk 10y agoIndeed that's the one that I used. For some reason, even just moving the cursor around the buffer was extremely unresponsive, it would take seconds for it to register a cursor movement. I'll have to figure out if it's some package I'm using.

- blaenk 10y agoWoah I tried it again and it seems like it's working perfectly! It seems like the initial release for windows wasn't compiled with optimizations, so perhaps that's the issue I was observing. https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/598iot/on_windows_emacs_251_is_noticeably_slower_than/d9udxzf/ https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/598iot/on_windows_em...
