[comp.windows.x] emacs and DECwindows

jstravis@athena.mit.edu (John S. Travis) (06/12/90)

Here's another question perhaps frequently asked?
My prof. DEC3100 runs DECwindows and we just copied the emacs
executable over from another DEC3100 that doesn't. Most people on
that machine use mwm or uwm. When rlogin to my prof. machine from
machines running mwm or uwm, emacs works fine. BUT on the DEC3100
itself, the emacs window will not accept any input at all.
Must be something with DECwindows, but I have no clue. help???

thanks

GNU emacs works fine on my DS3100.  There were problems with some
versions of emacs.  Make sure you get 18.55 or later.
