Two questions

Hello all,
I would like to learn two things and am uncertain where to
look; so I thought I would write.
1. Where would one suggest looking to learn better how
parse-partial-sexp works? In my opinion, that section of the elisp
reference manual is too short. In my hunting through the
xemacs-packages, I found many examples of parse-partial-sexp in use,
but was never able to properly understand what was going on.
2. What do I need to do in order to work with sockets and/or
character special files in elisp? I would love to be able to call
ioctl(). I was hunting through lstream.h but have so far come up
empty.
Thank you for your time,
-Trey Belew

I needed the following patch to get it to build under mswindows:
cvs server: Diffing lib-src
Index: lib-src/gnuclient.c
===================================================================
RCS file: /usr/CVSroot/XEmacs/xemacs/lib-src/gnuclient.c,v
retrieving revision 1.17.2.12.4.2
diff -u -r1.17.2.12.4.2 gnuclient.c
--- gnuclient.c 2001/02/17 04:39:44 1.17.2.12.4.2
+++ gnuclient.c 2001/03/01 22:16:59

}
else /* !suppress_windows_system */
{
+ if (0)
+ ;
#ifdef HAVE_X_WINDOWS
- if (display)
+ else if (display)
sprintf (command, "(gnuserv-edit-files '(x %s) '(",
clean_string (display));
#endif
#ifdef HAVE_GTK
- if (display)
+ else if (display)
strcpy (command, "(gnuserv-edit-files '(gtk nil) '(");
#endif
#ifdef HAVE_MS_WINDOWS
I also see the looping problem in compiling auto-autoloads.el but I don't
think this is gtk specific. Debugging gave me a SIGSEGV but no useful
stacktrace.
This is cygwin

xemacs

To any one that can help,
I am trying to use xemacs with cgwin on windows to be able to telnet to a
unix server. If I bring up cygwin by itself and try to telnet to the unix
server then I can telnet in just fine. The problem is that I do not have the
functionality of the xemacs editor because the term type that I need is not
available.
When I bring up xemacs and go to the mini buffer using Meta-x and type
telnet and the hostname it does not give me an error and does open a new
buffer but with no prompt of any type. In the small information bar at the
bottom of the buffer it saids *telnet-hostname* (telnet:sp-unix).
If I try to telnet from the command line in a buffer then I get a message
Signal 127 and then a prompt again.
xemacs is a great editor but is useless to me without being able to telnet.
Instead of cygwin I wonder if I should try to run emacs under x11, any
suggestions and instructions would be appreciated.
Also if someone knew of a free emulator that I could use to start emacs or
xemacs that would have the right key mapping and the mouse would be alive. I
have tried to use emacs and xemacs in procomm plus 3, Anzio and Qvtnet. It
will come up but a lot of the functionality is lost such as the meta keys
and the mouse.
Thank you for any help,
