[comp.emacs] ^Z

mark@moe.uucp (mark kraitchman) (12/23/87)

Pardon my naivete, I installed microemacs 3.9e on a Sun 3/60 running Sun
Unix 4.2 Release 3.4.  And when I try to use control-z to stop
microemacs as the foreground process, it does not.  Did I make a mistake
in installing microemacs, or is there a problem with the key bindings to
control-z, or is not possible to stop and restart microemacs ?

The default Micro-Emacs binding for control-z resizes the current window
(I think...). I put the following in my .emacsrc file and got my job control
back:

	bind-to-key suspend-emacs ^Z

Also, ^X-D is the default 'suspend-emacs' binding.
