Subject: bug#6685: 23.2; Discards control characters during boot.
Date: Thu, 08 Sep 2016 01:08:55 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m2poofrna0.fsf@Andrews-MacBook-Pro.local> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87bpa160pk.fsf@gmail.com> (Trent W. Buck's message of "Wed, 21 Jul 2010 12:13:59 +1000")


I was trying to reproduce this in Emacs 25, but emacsclient will not
start up a new emacs instance with emacsclient. According to the
documentation I have on emacsclient on using the alternative editor
flag:

If the value of EDITOR is the empty string, run "emacs --daemon" to
start Emacs in daemon mode, and try to connect to it.

So I can't reproduce this issue anymore.  Let me know if I'm missing
something, please.
