How do I start gnuserv so that each subsequent XEmacs is a client?
Put the following in your `.emacs’ file to start the server: (gnuserv-start) Start your first XEmacs as usual. After that, you can do: gnuclient randomfilename from the command line to get your existing XEmacs process to open a new frame and visit randomfilename in that window. When you’re done editing randomfilename, hit C-x # to kill the buffer and get rid of the frame. See also man page of gnuclient.
