Hi,

i'm using Emacs with Cygwin under Win2000. Everything works fine but i
can't exit Emacs with C-x C-c. When i type C-x C-c nthg happens. I

Perhaps C-x C-c has been redefined. Try C-h w save-buffers-kill-emacs.

M-x save-buffers-kill-emacs

Put this in your .emacs file:

(global-set-key "\C-x\C-c" 'save-buffers-kill-emacs)

I found this on the 'net years ago:

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
;; check before killing emacs
(defun my-exit-from-emacs ()
(interactive)
(if (yes-or-no-p "Do you want to exit ")
(save-buffers-kill-emacs)))
(global-set-key "\C-x\C-c" 'my-exit-from-emacs)


It's similar, but it prompts to see if you really want to exit. This
is very handy if you have tons of windows/frames/buffers open and
don't want them all to go poof when you accidentally hit c-x,c-c !

You mean people *exit* Emacs? Why?

Just another person who types "screen emacs" about once a month...

Hi Bill,
I have faced same problem.. you may try our old windows trick handling
menus so fast that they appearer as keys... when i exit out of notepad i
type
alt f x
why not for emacs?
try
F10 f e

type it so fast that C-x C-x will appear slow!
