Once you mentioned the 2 versions of emacs, one for X server, one for native, that struck a chord. So I went back to the X server version, and emacsclient -c -n works just fine there. I was thinking that something had changed in emacs, but instead I had changed the very emacs I was using. Sorry for the bother, I can live with emacs working as it does under Cygwin with the native version. I just didn't understand what had changed. Thanks again! Dave in Hudson, FL
