Nonsense. If you want Emacs, you want Emacs, not some poor imitation. This has nothing to do with whether the machine is ``stripped down'' or not. The answer to the original question is that the package is built with X support because that's what most people want. If you build your own Emacs from the port, it will automatically take notice of whether you have X installed or not and take appropriate measures. -GAWollman -- Garrett A.
