Client session not deletable anymore.

Client session not deletable anymore.

Hi,

when I run emacsclient (the revoked version that does NOT open a new frame), I
am not able to delete the client session on the host Emacs anymore; instead I
get the following message when I run C-x #:

	server-delete-client: Attempt to delete the sole active
	                      display terminal

The behaviour I was used to is that the buffer is closed and emacsclient
returns.
When I hit C-x # again, I get:

	No server editing buffers exist

I run 23.0.50.2, built from CVS HEAD on 2007-09-25.

Can you please send an exact recipe on how you get into this situation
starting from emacs -Q ?

On this machine, I can not reproduce it under X, due to something really
strange:

1. Open XTerm
2. emacs -nw -Q
3. M-x server-start
4. Open another XTerm
5. emacsclient test.txt

After 5., a new Emacs X11(!) frame spawns and says:

	Buffer `test.txt' still has clients; kill it? (yes or no)

When I do 5. like that:

5. emacsclient -c test.txt

it works as expected: creating a new X11 frame and visiting test.txt as
client, saying:

	When done with a buffer, type C-x #

I will test this scenario on the machine it occured first when I have access
to it again.

Hi,

okay, I can reproduce it when I am not under X. Steps:

0. Be on the linux console, no X started
1. emacs -Q
2. M-x server start
3. Switch to another (non-X!) console
4. emacsclient test.txt
-> test.txt opens in the emacs server frame as expected
5. Write, save test.txt
6. C-x #

Response after 6.:

	server-delete-client: Attempt to delete the sole active
	                      display terminal

Then again:
7. C-x #

No, emacs responds:

	No server editing buffers exist

HTH

Thanks. I checked in a patch that should fix this.
