(emacs 23 and 24) I can start the daemon fine on linux, on win it fails claiming it is not supported on the platform, oh well. Connecting to it with emacsclient is a mixed bag though, the terminal version works like expected, but the gtk version only works when opening a new file like thus: "emacsclient foo", however, if I try this: "emacsclient -c" which I'd like to do I got bupkus, nothing. Moreover, when I close the window, the daemon is still alive, but gets killed the next time I try to connect to it, I know, strange huh ? So I'd like to know what the deal is really, is the emacs server mode a bit of a pipe dream ? thx wzzl -- Stinky Wizzleteet thinks: You're currently going through a difficult transition period called "Life."
