I can't reproduce this.  Note that I'm not an emacs user.  What I do:

In one mintty I start emacs and pressed M-x server-start.

In a second mintty I run `emacsclient -t --alternate-editor=""'.  I get
the typical emacs buffer window.  I can type some text and press C-x 5 0
and this exits emacs.

Then I run `emacsclient -t --alternate-editor=""' again, and emacs starts
with a buffer filled with the text I typed in the first client session.

Looks entirely normal to me, as far as I can judge this as emacs noob.

Ken, can you take a look, perhaps?  I'm just not familiar enough with
emacs...


Thanks,
Corinna
