I installed 18.57 on a Sun Sparc running SunOS 4.1 about a week ago...

	[grrr...as I was typing this note, and doing more testing to be
	able to explain the problem better, I figured out what the
	real problem was.]

...and it doesn't do tilda expansion correctly when using Sun's
automounter.  As it was defaulting to ~/ with ^X^F, it wasn't finding
any of the files I was trying to edit.  The problem may be deeper
rooted than that, because I still can't edit any files from the command
line without using a full pathname. (It works fine when automount is
not a factor though)

thanks,
Michael
