Hi, I am trying to run Emacs version 21.2.1 on HP-UX Itanium plattform. Yes, I know it is an unsupported OS but what happens is so astonishing that I decided to drop you a note anyway. When I issue command: $ emacs filename (for example $ emacs foo.txt) then the only buffers Emacs gives me are messages and scratch. There is no buffer containing foo.txt. Please note that foo.txt is an existing file. Is this a bug? If not, what is the explanation to this behaviour and how do I get around it? Your help will be greatly appreciated.
