And I "make install" into $HOME/.local on a Debian (stable) system. I am using Gnome. Now I have two application icons - Emacs and Emacs (Client). I want to understand the behaviour of these two links. Following is what is happening on my system and I want to know if that is the desired behaviour: 1. When I launch Emacs by clicking "Emacs" icon from apps. Emacs launches as usual and shows "Emacs (Client)" near the Activities menu in Gnome shell. And when I exit Emacs, C-x C-c, it is perfectly shutdown. 2. When I launch Emacs by clicking "Emacs (Client)" icon from apps. Emacs launches as expected. And shows "Emacs (Client)" near the Activities menu. But when I want to exit this instance of Emacs, I press C-x C-c and the frame is gone. But there is still an Emacs process running. I want to know if this is the desired behaviour of Emacs. And if Yes then what is the official way to terminate the residual Emacs process in case (2) above? ~Regards Pankaj
