There's a bug in the NeWS driver for GNU Emacs that can cause the NeWS window to hang at startup under certain conditions. To fix it, add the line setpgrp (0, getpid ()); just before the call to init_sigio () near line 733 in NeWS.c. The entire NeWS driver kit is available via anonymous ftp from columbia.edu in pub/ps-emacs.tar.Z, or via mail (send a message containing the line "send NeWS emacs-support" to archive-server@columbia.edu).
