If this is a reference to running 'cvs update -kb' in the nt directory, note that I found that I also had to run it in at least the leim\CXTERM-dic and lisp\international dictionaries. Emacs then linked, and the makefile appeared to complete, but Emacs wouldn't start up. I then downloaded the whole again using the command 'cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.savannah.gnu.org:/sources/emacs co -kb -r emacs-unicode-2 emacs'. (Note the '-kb'.) I then made it cleanly (apart from numerous warnings during byte-compilation and messages saying that files could not be deleted), but again it would not run. The only clue I have as to why is that when I run emacs.exe from the cmd.exe command line I get the message, ' Wrong type argument: stringp, nil'. Could it be failing because I build it with none of the graphics options xpm, png, jpeg, tiff and gif? (I didn't need them to rebuild a usable Emacs 22.1 from the source distribution.) Incidentally, while lisp/version.el identifes the current version of emacs-unicode-2 as 23.0.60, nt/emacs.rc identifies it as 23.0.50.0, and this is the number stamped into the Windows executables I managed to generate.
