As an alternative: Install Cygwin X server (or other X server). Use X11 forwarding in your ssh session: 'ssh -X -Y ...'. Run Emacs on the Linux box, with the display on the Windows box. Works fine, except that the most recent version of X Windows on Cygwin seems to have some bug that makes it very slow (as of a week ago); I'm using the "previous" version. > The scratchbox installation has emacsclient installed, and I was > wondering whether it would be possible for me to edit files using > emacsclient and have them open on Emacs running on a different machine - > in this case my Windows install. There are methods in Emacs for editing files via various transports. I don't know if emacsclient knows about them. I find X Windows to be better. -- -- Stephe
