I cannot access my account so I'm using my a friend's account:
Thanks to somebody (lost the name, sorry) for the patch for ISC 3.0, X11R4.
I got epoch 4.0p1 to come up.
The problem was that the file "src/config/s-isc2-2.h" needs;

#define HAVE_SELECT

Other problems:
  1. Sometimes epoch comes up the the main window and the mini-buffer
window fighting with each other to be at the top of the stacking
order.  They seem to flash incessantly.

  2. Cannot define keys.

  a) EMACS under xpcterm:
     load-library term/vt100  (or  term/vt220)
     enable-arrow-keys
     global-set-key
       (type F1)
     Set key ESC O P to command:
       (type other-window)
     Works fine!!!

  b) EPOCH or EMACS under xterm:
     load-library term/vt100  (or  term/vt220)
     enable-arrow-keys
     global-set-key
       (type F1)
     Set key ESC [ command: 11~
       (delete "11~" and type other-window)
     Then F1 works except that "11~" gets inserted at point!!!
     If I load term/vt220, I get different but similar behavior,
     with tilde (~) being inserted in weird places.         
     (in src/x11term.c I see "case XK_F1: return ("11");", but I'm
     lost from there!)

Can somebody mail me (or post) their ".emacs" file for epoch on
ISC Unix 3.0 X11R4?

Thanks much.
