	Warning:  This question comes from a theory and algorithms guy
extremely ignorant of actualy computing.

	I just got a brand new Sun SLC, and of course want to run
emacs under X.  I have emacs 18.55 (the binary from another
Sparcstation around here), and my window manager is twm.  

	For starters, am I supposed to be running emacs or emacstool.
From an xterm, emacs & just gives me back + Stopped (tty output) emacs,
and emacstool gives me
>  window: Base frame not passed parent window in environment
>  window: Base frame not passed parent window in environment
> Notifier erroro: Unknown client
> notify_interpose_event_func got 1.

	Running emacs in foreground from an xterm does get me an
emacs, but neither the mouse nor the arrow keys do much good.  

	I would appreciate an email copy of responses, since news has
been going up and down around here lately.
