Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] GNU emacs 21.2-4 released


Just for clarification, I'd like to see if my understanding is correct:
- The non-X-windows version will only run in a Cygwin "terminal" window.
- The X-windows version requires installation of the XFree packages; this
  version will work similarly to NTEmacs, including multiple frames, etc.

And a question or two:
- Will the X-windows version work with gnuclient (or equivalent) to allow
  things like associations with file types?
- Are there restrictions or awkwardness in accessing non-Cygwin-mounted
  directories/file systems?
- Any other salient operational differences with NTEmacs?

Thanks for undertaking the effort to merge two excellent sets of software.
