This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team, not to your local site managers!! Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have translators to read other languages for them. Please describe as succinctly as possible: - What happened. - What you thought should have happened. - Precisely what you were doing at the time. Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have. ================================================================ Dear Bug Team! When "emacs" is symbolically-linked to "xemacs", XEmacs fails to start and instead gives this error: % ./emacs temacs can only be run in -batch mode.
