Sorry to come in here with a question like this but it seems it
belongs here better than anywhere else.
I understood version 23 had built in support for multi-tty. Are there
versions of 23 that do not?
The reason I ask is I recently installed version 23 on a gentoo linux
os but when I run it I cannot find anything about multi-tty
This is on version:
GNU Emacs 23.0.60.2 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit) of 2008-05-17
on reader
Not even an apropos search with multi.*tty
Is it called something else?
NOTE:
To make sure I'm getting the right info pages:
cd /usr/share/info/emacs-23
C-u C-h i emacs.info.bz2
Then I find nothing with index search on multi-tty or `s' (full regex
search) with multi.*tty
Nothing at M-x apropos with multi.*tty either

Try starting Emacs in console mode, in a terminal emulator running under
X, and then doing something like M-x make-frame-on-display RET :0 RET.
If things are working, that will create a new X window with an Emacs
frame in it; if not, not.

I'm not where I can do that right now but are there no commands
involving the multi-tty functionality or some variables that can be
turned up with C-h v? I mean ... I find nothing whatever in the
documentation
No M-x something. Is there no information about it included in the
distribution of version 23?
Can you or someone answer my first questions... are there versions
that do not contain the multi-tty functionality?
Is called something else... how can I look up documentation about
using it?

Thanks ... I found it.
** Emacs now supports using both X displays and ttys in one session.
[...]
Where can I find a discussion or more info about how to use this
feature?
For example: On box1 emacs-23 is running with the server started and
a gnus session started.
How can I interact with the gnus session when I ssh to box1 from
remote box2?

,----[ (info "(emacs)Emacs Server") ]

These docs are a bit outdated and don't mention some of the new
emacsclient options, but most things should be still correct.

box2$ ssh box1
box1$ emacsclient -t
(This opens a new console emacs frame)
C-x b *Group*
Hope that helps,
