I'm trying to use Xemacs under Vista Ultimate....everything works well
except when I try to update the package index, ftp doesn't work. I get
a popup dialog that says "*ftp anonymous(a)ftp.xemacs.org* seems not a
pty. Kill?"
I suspect you need to use Cygwin's ftp. If you press C-g at the point
you see the message, is there anything in the *ftp ...* buffer?
My real objective is to run gnus. When I try that an error message
in
the minibuffer window appears: "Cannot open load file: %s: sha1".
For a short-term fix, you can always download the tarball manually and
drop it in the installation.
