================================================================ Dear Bug Team! I am running xemacs on FreeBSD and Redhat 9. Some days ago I found out, what xemacs 21.4.12 and 21.4.13 can not process init files specified with -user-init-file if the path is relative. With absolut paths it works. Here is the content of the test init file I used: (switch-to-buffer "junk") MfG Oliver Fischer ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- uname -a: FreeBSD warpgondel2.xshare.com 5.0-RELEASE-p7 FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE-p7 #1: Sun Jun 1 16:48:28 GMT 2003 root＠warpgondel2.xshare.com:/usr/obj/usr/RELENG_5_0/sys/GENERIC i386 ./configure '--with-clash-detection' '--with-sound=native,nonas,noesd' '--site-includes=/usr/local/include' '--site-libraries=/usr/local/lib' '--with-ldap=no' '--with-site-lisp' '--with-database=berkdb' '--x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib' '--x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include' '--prefix=/usr/local' 'i386--freebsd' XEmacs 21.4.12 "Portable Code" configured for `i386--freebsd'.
