And in fact calling emacs at a cmd prompt just brigs up emacs in it own window, not another xterm. However, and surprisingly it does work... Inserting the xterm -e command at: right click/ open with/ other Brings first an xterm which immediately spawns a new emacs window (not in the xterm but on its own) I'm pretty sure this is not what SHOULD happen though. I SHOULD be able to just insert /usr/bin/emacs since it does not run in an xterm. But... thanks .. at least I can edit a page with emacs now. -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
