Hi, Perhaps someone has encountered this situtation and found a solution? I want to run one instance of Epoch (I'm currently on Epoch 4.0 Patchlevel 1), and have the flexibility of creating new screens on a different X display than the one I started up on. The obvious way to me to do this would be to set my DISPLAY environment variable within the emacs environment (via "M-x setenv") to the other display (say ":0.1" if my default display was originally ":0.0"). However, this doesn't seem to affect the creation of subsequent windows. Has anyone tried this with any luck? Thanks, Greg ============================================================================= = Greg Schechter IMPS Advanced Technology Group = = SunSoft, Inc.
