Hi,

I just got 18.53 fresh from the oven.  It is up running on my Sun-3 under
SunOS 3.3.  However, I found that I can't seem to fire up Emacs from a shell
script -- the Emacs process just hang there.  I can fire up Emacs from the
top-level shell by typing 'emacs ....' but not from a shell script.
I installed the whole as me (i.e. not as root) and the only thing I changed is
adding '#define HAVE_SUN_WINDOWS' before the '#include "s-bsd4-2.h"' line  in
config.h.

Did I do something wrong ?  Any pointers will be much appreciated.

regards.
