Hello,
	I like Epoch very much, and if you could help
	me to get rid of this [strange] bug - I'll be
	really happy (:-).

	Epoch-4.2 (got from ftp.uu.net), no additional
	patches applied (just am not aware of any :-).

	AIX/ESA (aka OSF/1) on IBM-390 Mainframe.
	Metaware High-C R2.4q compiler (almost
	ANSI). Epoch is configured for BSD4_3,
	so I'm giving "-D_BSD -DBSD_INCLUDES" compiler
	flags, plus "-g" of course.

	The problem is: "dired" doesn't work, and either
	returns empty buffer (saying "done", as if A.O.K),
	or (more seldom, on bigger directories) it just
	hangs up... Finally "ls" process gets into "Idle"
	state, while Epoch is sleeping...

	When I try "ESC-|" to run something on a region,
	that program doesn't get any input...

	But I can do "M-x shell", and this works correctly
	and consistently. Shell buffer seems to be fully
	operational.

	I'm willing to pursue this problem, if you could
	guide me. I do want to get Epoch up'n'running,
	especially since this seems to be the only
	problem I'm having with it now: it does
	get up, it can edit files, etc...

	Help please!!! Thanks!!
