Using minibuf.el with tvtwm

	I have been using epoch with tvtwm.  I would like to use the
minibuf.el file with epoch, however it seems incompatible with tvtwm.
When I start up epoch, the minibffer comes up in the correct location
and size, but goes away when the main epoch window comes up.  However,
it doesn't go away completely.  Depending on where I put the viewed part
of the virtual desktop (a tvtwm feature) and the epoch main window, the
minibuffer will move around the virtual desktop.  But no matter what I
do I can't get the minibuffer and the main window close to each other.

	I'm using the latest version of minibuf.el (which I copied from
this group a couple of days ago).  I've got the maclib-toolbox.el file
in my /usr/local/lib/emacs/epoch-lisp/ directory.  I don't have a(n) .epoch file and my .emacs file is as follows:


;; Make all of the screens *not* auto-raise.
(setq auto-raise-screen nil)

(setq running-epoch t)    ;I've also tried the line (require 'running-epoch)
			  ;but this just gives me an "error in init file"
			  ;message.   ???
(require 'maclib-toolbox)



	Can you help me?  For now I don't use minibuf.el.

	Thanks.

later,
dan
