I don't manage to compile a working XEmacs for myself :-(. Since the Athena dialog boxes are broken (see a previous email), I tried --with-dialogs=none. Editing a file and leaving XEmacs via the Menu-Option "Exit XEmacs" I get (debug-on-error is set): Signaling: (wrong-type-argument "unable to bind this type of event" #<misc-user-event (eval (let (this-command last-command) (update-widget-instances #<x-frame "emacs" 0x2613>)))>) lookup-key(#<keymap size 1 0x4271> [#<misc-user-event (eval (let ... ...))>]) map-y-or-n-p(#<compiled-function (buffer) "...(84)" [buffer-modified-p buffer buffer-base-buffer symbol-value-in-buffer save-buffers-skip buffer-file-name exiting buffer-offer-save buffer-size 0 arg t switch-buffer one-window-p delete-other-windows switched switch-to-buffer format "Save file %s?

For now this means that I'm staying with 21.1 :-(. Or does anybody have some magic options --with-dialogs option that works on Linux? Andreas P.S.
