The expansion of with-timeout looks rather complicated, I would be happy if I didn't have to include it in Tramp. Hm. It seems to be the same in Emacs and in XEmacs. So it appears that XEmacs has no alternative implementation for doing the same job -- else I'd guess that the compat macro would use it. So one approach would be to declare with-timeout a new feature instead of a compat thing. But I might be misunderstanding, and the with-timeout implementation in XEmacs is the same as the one in Emacs for a different reason. I don't know much about XEmacs specifics. Kai
