I opened Emacs 23.1 in MS Windows to write some Lisp code. When I used C-x C-f
to create a new file, it brought up the window to pick a directory and create
the file. However, when I typed in a file name, in this case Pi.lisp, and
clicked ok, a popup appears that says C:\Lisp\Pi.lisp File not found. It also does this
when I click the "New File" button at the top of the screen.
The ability to create a file without having to leave the editor would be nice.
Beyond that, great job with the new release. Emacs loads almost instantaneously
on Windows now.
