I installed Xemacs from the 21.5.17 beta download off the website. This isn't actually a disguised cygwin build is it?

Just in case it is relevant - I do have everything mounted binmode from cygwin. >also, are you saying that the file definitely has CRLF's (use `od -bc' >to verify), but XEmacs loads it up without a :T in the >modeline and without visible ^M's? that would be strange; >i've never seen it. > > That's right. Any text file on my system does not get :T when I load it, and I've verified they have CRLF's. I'm running XP64, so I also tried it on a 32 bit system - same results. But, again, I also have cygwin installed on that system. Ok, just to eliminate all the cygwin question, I just tried it in a fresh XPPro (32-bit) under vmware. I get the exact same behavior. I am quite surprised others aren't seeing this.
