Hi Malcolm,

[I've discovered that I posted this patch ages ago but never committed it.]
Way back in April Giacomo Boffi reported that -unmapped was broken in 21.5.
This fixes it so once again no frame appears.
The problem was that the updated version of display-splash-screen called
pop-to-buffer, which mapped the frame. pop-to-buffer is moved to the
interactive function xemacs-splash-buffer instead.
lisp/ChangeLog addition:
2006-10-20 Malcolm Purvis <malcolmp(a)xemacs.org>
* startup.el (display-splash-screen): No longer bring buffer the
front. Fixes problems with -unmapped.
* startup.el (xemacs-splash-buffer): Pop splash buffer to the
front here instead.
Unfortunately, this patch broke starting a cygwin XEmacs started from
a cmd window. Here's how to reproduce the problem from Windows:
1. Build and install a cygwin version of XEmacs. In this example,
we'll assume it gets installed to /usr/local/bin/xemacs
2. bring up cmd (not a cygwin shell)
3. in that cmd window, type the following
run /usr/local/bin/xemacs
4. the XEmacs window will not appear on the screen or on the taskbar.
If you start gnuserv in your startup file, you can use gnuclient to
pop up a window.
Reverting your patch fixes this problem.
Do you have a Windows environment to test in? If you need help
testing a possible solution, I'm happy to provide my assistance.

Thanks for the bug report, Vin.
Does the frame appear when you start it from a cygwin window? Have you tried
the pure Windows build?
I don't access to a Windows box, so when I think of a solution I'll let you
know.
Thanks again,
Malcolm

Thanks for the bug report, Vin.

Yes, in both cases the frame appears normally - I know, it's kind of odd.
I don't have access to a Windows box, so when I think of a

I'll let you know.
Thanks for thinking about this. Reading between the lines, I guess
I'll have to do some investigating, too. :-)

Very strange. There's clearly some execution path that does not open the
initial frame, but it is odd that starting from a Cywgin window doesn't
trigger it. Are there any differences in the report-xemacs-bug output for the
Cygwin and Windows launched instances?

Yes you will! Thanks for the help.
