According to the 18.57 ChangeLog file,
" * Makefile (install, install.sysv, install.xenix
Install wakeup instead of loadst. No need for setuid or setgid
Does this mean that instead of calls to loadst they should be changed to
wakeup?? We have a remote.el file we load that has the following defun:
(defun start-time-process ()
"Get the clock started ticking."
(if (not (and (get-process "time")
(string-equal (process-status time-process) "run")))
(progn
(setq time-load-string " ")
(setq time-process
(start-process "time" nil
"loadst" "-n" (int-to-string display-time-interval)))
(set-process-filter time-process 'time-filter)
(process-kill-without-query time-process))))
If I change the loadst to wakeup, the file loads ok but emacs gets into a
beeping mode and won't stop. The only way to stop it seems to be killing
the window.
What does loadst and wakeup do?
Has anyone had any problems with this?
Thanks in advance for ANY help.
Chuck
