Hi,
I am trying to install GNU emacs V18.57 in a VAX running
VAX-VMS 5.1, and i have the following problem:
$ emacs foo.c
the result is that i get a buffer named loadup.el and no foo.c !!!
$ emacs foo.c bar.c
results in the buffer dump !!!
if i give more parameters emacs crashes.
In the file BUILT.COM there is a line with
$ temacs -l loadup.el dump
I beleave that there must be some relation with what is apening.
I have followed all the instructions to build emacs on a VMS.
I got the sources from a unix distribution.
PS. I'm sorry for my poor english. I hope you understend what is
the problem.
