When users use emacs 19.25 in a terminal session (i.e. no X) it works fine. When 
they use emacs as an editor in elm or rn (and possibly others) once they quit 
that application the shell prompt reappears, but it just doesn't respond at all.
The app still works fine after using emacs, it's only when you quit it that the
problem appears.

This happens in telnet (vt100) sessions and in xterms (with DISPLAY not set). 
In a Sun cmdtool however, it merely stops input echoing and a stty sane will 
fix it.

I'm sure someone else must have noticed this. Does anyone have an idea what's
going on and how to fix it?

cheers,

bob
