Hello,  I am not an emacs user but  there were some requests for emacs
which can do cut/paste.   I found that epoch is the one.

I could install epoch on sun/sparc successfully, and it seems to run ok as
long as I don't change the fonts and window size.
But if I change the font and the size of the epoch window,  it continuously
rewrites the epoch window (about 5 times per second).  All I can do it
just to kill the window.  Could anyone help me to correct the problem ?
Also, epoch does not seem to set as specified in .Xdefaults file.
So I had to do 'xrdb < .Xdefaults' again before I run it. Why is it so ?

Our system :  SUN sparc running SUN-OS 4.1
              X11R5 patch 8
              Epoch 4.0p0

Thanks, in advance.
