I am having some problems with GNU Emacs 18.55 on a MIPS/120 running RISC/os 4.01. Emacs has been made with the "s-usg5-2.h" and the "m-mips.h" set in the config.h file, and will make without any problems. The trouble is that it displays some serious problems when run. It seems that the conventional bindings of C-z (suspend) and C-y (delayed suspend) are still holding in emacs. C-z does a system suspend, and does not execute the suspend-emacs lisp code. C-y does a delayed suspend and not a yank. Shell and telnet are not working properly (they won't display any output). Filename completion is not working correctly either, a C-x C-f and then a SPC produces a completion list that consists of only one '\' for each file. If you try to type part of a filename and use the completion keys, it won't match at all. I have built previous versions of Emacs on a MIPS/M1000 system running the MIPS UMIPS/BSD system and did not run into these problems. I have tried to set myself up (on the MIPS/120) to use the BSD includes and cpp, and then make emacs with "s-bsd4-3.h" which will compile and link, but then temacs will die with "Termination code 139" when it tries to dump emacs. Can anyone offer any assistance? Please reply by mail. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bob Beck, Department of Computing Science, University of Alberta, Canada. beck@cs.ualberta.ca beck@alberta.uucp ------------------------------------------------------------------------
