Installed the latest beta from cygwin with the sumo package so I wouldn't have
to go through all the hassle of finding little packages and installing them.
1) there's no .xemacs directory
I discovered this when I tried to edit the initialization file and save it. I
also discovered
2) saving a file when the director doesn't exist apparently causes xemacs to hang.
Fortunately if I killed the process and restart, I can save configuration files.
Sorry about discovering so many problems but I am one of those people that makes
things break.
On packages, why doesn't it say or at least tell you which package repository
was selected.
When I try to update the package index with sumo loaded, EFS is start up and
then I get, in a terminal window:
