   I didn't mean redisplay itself, I meant the way it is triggered in
   Emacs.

Ah, I guess I never needed to make the distinction.

   IME, many people don't understand that, and, for example, think that
   scroll commands actually scroll the text in the window.  Which, of
   course, is not what happens.

That I've seen, from watching emacs repaint after scrolling over a slow
connection.
