Thanks, GNU Emacs 18.57 has been updated to reflect the changes between Irix release 3.2 and 3.3. The easiest solution is to either use v18.55 (I think 18.56 also has the Irix 3.3 fixes), or (preferably) upgrade to Irix 3.3.2. Sorry I couldn't be more help, but I don't have the 18.55 config files around any more to diff. -- Scott Henry / Traveller on Dragon Wings Information Services, / Help! My disclaimer is missing!
