Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list. Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: This bug report is about the documentation: 1. The manual does not document "-t" and "-c" option to emacsclient. This especially important as visiting a file with emacsclient connecting to an emacs daemon *without* ether of the "-t"/"-c" options does not work any more (only shows "Waiting for emacs..."). Using X11 "-t" uses a terminal emulators window (xterm for instance), "-c" creates a frame. On the console both options use the console to show the buffer. 2. The manual does not document the --daemon initial option in the chapter documenting the use of emacs server 3. The manual does not document the fact that starting emacs with --daemon finally helps all those users who want to get rid of the otherwise ever present *scratch* buffer (start emacs as daemon, use emacsclient under X to visit a file, server-edit: the whole frame vanishes instead of presenting/annoing you with the *scratch* buffer) Perhaps this helps in improving the manual. Thank you very much for emacs and the awesome --daemon option, Gregor If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger, please include the output from the following gdb commands: `bt full' and `xbacktrace'. If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file /usr/share/emacs/23.0.60/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
