Subject: emacsclient command line use existing client
Date: Thu, 11 Sep 2014 08:58:44 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87zje671q3.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
The following are part of a .so file I use to let browser mailto: links open a message in Gnus.
elisp_expr="(mailto-compose-mail \"$mailto\")"
emacsclient -a "" -c -n --eval "$elisp_expr" \
'(set-window-dedicated-p (selected-window) t)'
But somehow when I run this it starts a new emacsclient rather than using the one I have running. If I remove the `-a ""` then nothing happens at all. Why won't it connect to my existing emacsclient?
