Re: [PATCH] Re: redisplay-dont-pause is not mentioned in the Emacs manual

    A first step would be to provide more realistic settings for baud_rate
    in xterm.c, macterm.c, and w32term.c -- for example, 250000 (assuming
    that the connection is over a somewhat loaded half-duplex 10 MB LAN).

    And then only enable pre-emptive redisplay if baud-rate is < 200000.

Is it possible to tell whether the X connection is local?  (Do people
still use remote X connections from distant machines to the local X
server, nowadays?)

What about the Linux console?  Of course, we can put something in
term/linux.el, but that will take effect even when going through the
net.  Is there a way to distinguish real local use from remote use?
