Hi Eli,
had already tried the -Q option. Emacs started but when I tried "M-x
csharp-mode" it didn't recognise it. I tried exactly the same on the
normally-started emacs to check I was entering it correctly and that
did understand it.
I guess the -Q effectively disables some modes? I was surprised.

Yep, customisation may well  be the issue here.

I have a file of equivalent size which should demo the issue but can't
zip it as gmail blocks anything with a zip attached, I can post as
attachment directly but it's 220KBytes, you ok with that on your
mailing list?

cheers

jan
