I am running Epoch 4.0 under X11R5.

Here's my problem:

	I have to invoke Epoch automatically from certain 
shell scripts (or say from command line) many times.

	However, I do not want many instances of Epoch starting
up. Rather, every time I call Epoch, I want to connect to one
Epoch 'server' (for obvious reasons, I don't want all the functions
in my .emacs starting over and over again. I just want one 
screen.) Is there such a thing as Epoch client/server? Is this
the idea behind emacsclient?

	Any ideas?

-Narayanan

Yes, though I recommend the gnuserv/gnuclient stuff from Andy Norman.
(For security's sake, disable the TCP/IP connection stuff, though...)

Ages ago, I sent some people a small patch to gnuserv that implements
a rudimentary password facility.  Did anyone pick this up and try it
(or better, implement it properly!)?

If you're interested, drop me a line.
