I don't do Windows, but what I was tokd the last time this came up is that Windows does not pretend to offer Unix semantics here, and any program that expects them is broken. Whether or not that is true of XEmacs's C code, I don't know, but there's defintely a strong bias toward Unix in the application layers. -- School of Systems and Information Engineering http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
