This still does not work for me.
The buffer does get displayed in a window, like before, but the XEmacs
frame does not get raised (if obscured by other frames) or restored
(if minimized).
Are you sure you're using the correct entry from the SendTo menu? The
latest kit invokes gnuclient with the -q and -F options. Can you send
me the properties of your SendTo menu entry? Here's how to find it:
1. Right click on Start and select Explore
2. Choose the SendTo folder
3. Right click on "XEmacs (via gnuclient)" and choose Properties
4. Cut and paste the target string into your reply
winclient does this AFAIR.
Yes, I think that feature is built into DDE - the recipient is
automatically brought to the foreground.

gnuclientw now starts a new XEmacs, great!
How does it choose the XEmacs executable to start, if multiple exist?
It starts 21.5-b28 for me, which is good.
The setup kit adds a gnuclientw entry for the first XEmacs it finds.
When that gnuclient invokes an XEmacs, it uses the one from the
current directory. I decided that anyone sophisticated enough to have
multiple versions of XEmacs installed could change the properties of
the SendTo item.
I also have 21.5-b27, 21.5-b26, 21.4.19, and 21.1.14 installed under
C:\Program Files\XEmacs.
It looks like a new XEmacs so started does not have a *scratch* buffer.
Is that correct/intended?
I don't see that. For me, ^Xb offers *scratch* as the alternate
buffer. This is true in both 21.4 and 21.5.
Regards,
Vin
