If you're a Cygwin user, you will be much happier running an XEmacs built for Cygwin, rather than the "native" Win32 version - because of stuff like your Cygwin mount tables, CR/LF handling, "/" vs "\", etc... - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
