It appears that my problems with gnu emacs under X were caused by the fact
that I am missing the lisp/term directory. If someone would be so kind as
to mail me the files in that directory, I would appreciate it very much.
Please mail an offer so my mailbox does not die.
I am using gnu emacs v17.64.

I've just started playing with GNU Emacs v18.49.8 under X v10r4 (?)
under SunOS 3.2 and 4.2 BSD Unix, and could use some help. I would
like to know:
a) What kind of neat things are you people doing, in general? I'm
looking for interesting/useful functions, hints on usage and
setting defaults, etc.
b) What values are defined for the variable x-switches? I can't
seem to get my settings to take effect.
c) What values are defined for emacs in .Xdefaults? Are there any
other environment variables to worry about besides TERM and
DISPLAY?
d) If I've missed anything, please tell me about that too. But a)
is pretty catch-all...
I hopefully anticipate a fairly response, and will post a summary
accordingly when the furor dies down.
Regards,
Silver.

See lisp/term/x-win.el.

Either check the manual page in etc/emacs.1, or "use the force, read
the source" and see x_term_init() in src/xterm.c.

Speaking of X and Emacs, does anyone know how to get GNU Emacs to start
up as an icon? I like to have an Emacs up automatically, but
it gets annoying to not have it automatically iconize...
