Re: FW: default buffer-enable-undo

[David L]

undo is sometimes disabled by default.  It seems to be only
binary  files that are affected.  To produce this problem,
I typed "emacs /usr/local/bin/emacs".  Then I pressed the
space bar and then typed "C-x u" to undo the change I had
made.  emacs then told me that "No undo information in this buffer".
