Thanks for that link. I spent some time late last night comparing this new pure Emacs release with Aquamacs. I have been a happy Aquamacs user for a long time but I will probably switch because of the faster startup times and cleaner looking interface. When Aquamacs is released with an update, I would like easier options for simplifying the look and feel (e.g., having to hide the button bar, etc.)

BTW, really off topic, but does anyone know how to bind the speedbar to the main frame window instead of being in a separate frame window?



Answered my own question: found what I needed here to have the speedbar in the main window frame. Nice: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs-en/SpeedBar


As a tip, if you enjoy quick startup times, you might want to try running emacs in daemon mode. Just fire up a emacs --daemon instance, and you can then use emacsclient to instantly connect to it.


You can also put (server-start) in your .emacs config.
