In article <308@odi.UUCP> benson@odi.UUCP (Benson Margulies) writes: When creating a process (in create_process), emacs 18.53 does not put an entry in /etc/utmp. This causes getlogin to return 0, which causes sunOS4 sendmail (among other things) to fail in shell buffers. It would be nice if emacs 19 were to hack utmp registration. code can be found in the source of xterm. If this were done, I would hope that it were set up as only an option, or perhaps only under sunOS, as I would not wish to have all my shell buffers should up in /etc/utmp. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stewart M.
