I can confirm the typing delay, using XDarwin on OS X. I believe the
prob is caused by re-drawing the screen (I've noted that I get MUCH less
of a delay when I'm just typing into a blank document, or adding to the
end of a doc, vs. getting a MUCH longer delay when adding text to the
middle of a line, such that the prog is forced to shuffle letters right
as I add text.)

I was sorta under the impression that this was actually an
XDarwin-on-OSX problem more than a Abi problem, but am not sure what/who
made me think that. Can anyone give any insight here?

Hope this helps (at least a little)

Best,
T. McWee
