(Which is not so strange if it's their first time:) Wow. Just tried it: In GNU Emacs 21.2 (i686-pc-cygwin, X toolkit) of 2002-09-12 on hestia configured using `configure \ --prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/bin --sysconfdir=/etc \ --libexecdir=/usr/sbin --localstatedir=/var \ --datadir=/usr/share --without-toolkit-scroll-bars' ... Important settings: value of $LC_ALL: nil value of $LC_COLLATE: nil value of $LC_CTYPE: nil value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil value of $LC_MONETARY: nil value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil value of $LC_TIME: nil value of $LANG: C locale-coding-system: iso-latin-1 default-enable-multibyte-characters: t GNU Emacs 21.2 (i686-pc-cygwin, X toolkit) of 2002-09-12 on hestia It works really out of the box. Anyway this is not a NTEmacs. This is a cygwin emacs that is compiled with the cygwin library. NTEmacs is compiled with the -mno-cygwin flag. The cygwin emacs is a pure X11 emacs. Anyway it might be useful for debugging NTEmacs with gdb. (Do you remember the long discussion between Eli and Stefan for some months.) Harald
