I would expect that emacsclient -a "" -s my-server-name behaves the same but starts a server with server-name my-server-name and connects to this specific emacs server. But emacsclient.emacs-snapshot -a "" -s my-server-name does not start a server but instead says: emacsclient.emacs-snapshot: can't find socket; have you started the server? To start the server in Emacs, type "M-x server-start". Error: Could not start the Emacs daemon ps (1) shows no emacs server while emacsclient.emacs23 -a "" -s my-server-name starts a server but is not able to connect and says at the end of the output: Starting Emacs daemon. Emacs daemon should have started, trying to connect again emacsclient.emacs23: can't find socket; have you started the server? To start the server in Emacs, type "M-x server-start". Error: Cannot connect even after starting the Emacs daemon ps (1) shows emacs --daemon=????t)????d)?? Thank you for developing Emacs, gregor
