I get a similar message with Xemacs. I can use nedit and pico but would rather use emacs or Xemacs. I talked with Chris @ Walnut Creek and he had me load the binary compatability files which I did to no avail. I then reinstalled the OS this time including in the original instalation the compatability files and I still get the same mesage. Everything else works great.  I am using XFrr86 3.2A since I have a diamond Stealth 3D 3000 and it is directly supported by the S3V server. I can do what I wanted, that is program my projects, but I can't do so with an editor I am familiar with and like. Pico is the lowest common denominator and nedit is ok bnut it is not Xemacs or emacs. Thanks in advance
