Lafferty) Distribution: net Organization: The MITRE Coporation, Bedford, MA Lines: 21 Xref: watmath net.emacs:829 net.unix-wizards:12489 Has anyone out there ported Gosling emacs to a sun? I have successfully ported it to 4.2bsd on the Vax and it seems oK on a Pyramid, but I can't seem to get the process control stuf working on the Sun. I can start up a process using :shell or - (altho it gives me two shell processes and two prompts. I can do the normal things in the shell but when I try to EOTProcess it with control-D or eot-process it gives a segmentation violation. I have tried to track down the problem using dbx but all I can determine is that the EOTProcess returns suc- cessfully and the system ends up in the header of the sigretro.c file. (I used sigretro.[ch] to port the signal stuff to 4.2. I suspect that may be contributing to the problem but why on a sun....and not a vax...? Any ideas would be appreciated -- especially solutions, but even suggestions for tracking the problem.. Ed Lafferty P.S. THanks in advance.
