Two solutions: 1) ftp executables, from godzilla.cgl.rmit.oz.au 2) patch the original GNU Emacs 18.55.1 I used the second option. The patch file came from Randy Herber (herber@fnalf.fnal.gov), and it turned out successful. So if any of you would like a copy of this patch file, please tell me, or ask Randy Herber. I totally agree in the idea of maintaining executables on SGI's sites. It would save us so much trouble. I would like to thank, in particular, these people: ||================================================================== ||Randy Herber, herber@fnalf.fnal.gov or rjh@yclept.chi.il.us || ||"R.
