I am an experienced Emacs 18.57 user, just starting with Epoch 3.2. I often use emacsclient to send files to Emacs for editing. Why doesn't this work with Epoch? Details: I am running Epoch 3.2 under MIT X11 R4 on a Sun Sparcstation 1+ with SunOS 4.1.1. Official Epoch patches 1 and 2 were applied. Within Epoch I run the server-start command, which is documented as usual in Emacs. Then I expect to be able to go to the Unix command line (in an xterm off to the side) and say "/usr/local/lib/epoch/etc/emacsclient foobar". This should put the file foobar into a buffer for editing. Instead, the following message pops up in the minibuffer: "Symbol's value as variable is void: target-buffer". I would appreciate an e-mail reply. If I learn anything of interest, I will post a summary.
