Hello! I sent mail to maintainer of Emacs FAQ for Windows <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and to maintainers of Emacs FAQ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> but it seems that these e-mails are dead. Bellow is mail, which tries to clarify use of gnuserv under Windows. I hope I did not wrote something stupid and that it may help. With regards, Gregor - -----Original Message----- From: Gorjanc Gregor Sent: Fri 2005-08-12 16:33 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: NT emacs FAQ: Gnuserv Hello! I was reading on how to set up gnuserv with NT emacs and found FAQ at <http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/faq3.html#assoc>, but it was not much of a use, since forward link to <http://www.wyrdrune.com/index.html?gnuserv.html~main> is not very helplful in description of setting things up. Here I provide a simple step by step instructions I followed under Windows XP. You can add them to FAQ so others can benefit from it. 1. Get emacs and check that it runs as it should. I installed it in 'C:\Prorams\emacs\emacs'. Note that I did not used default place for programs, since there is a space character in it and I don't like it. 2. I usually create a desktop and a quick launch icon, which points to 'C:\Programs\emacs\emacs\bin\runemacs.exe'. 3. Get gnuserv i.e. <http://www.wyrdrune.com/Files/gnuserv.zip>. I unziped it in 'C:\Programs\emacs\gnuserv' 4. Add the following code to your '.emacs' file. Note that "load" process can also be done in other more "emacs" alike way. (load "c:/Programs/emacs/gnuserv/gnuserv.el") (require 'gnuserv) (gnuserv-start) and optionally additional line (setq gnuserv-frame (selected-frame)) ;; open buffer in current frame 5. Create file associations, where application is 'C:\Programs\emacs\gnuserv\Release\gnuclientw.exe'. Additionally one can create a "Send To" entry by adding a '*.bat' file, say 'sendToEmacs.bat' to 'Send To' folder under 'Documents and Settings'. The content of this file should be C:\Programs\emacs\gnuserv\Release\gnuclientw.exe "%1".
