I tried to bring up the "beta" build of xemacs-21.5-b16 today and got a
bit of a surprise.
The "gamma" or mainline version: launching with $DISPLAY unset comes up
using MS Windows - as advertised.
The 21.5-b16, as Volker built it, with $DISPLAY unset, comes up in
non-windowing mode, i.e. it uses the rxvt terminal window.
Now, that's not really terrible. I prefer the graphical but this does
work.
But even so, there is a glitch here. When I exit the Xemacs, the rxvt
session gets closed -- my whole login session is gone.
