Im using emacs version 24.0.92.1 on Windows 7 . I have updated my .emacs file to the following the redefine of server-ensure-safe-dir is to get rid of the "not a secure directory" error.
(require 'server) (defun server-ensure-safe-dir (dir) "Server function hack" t ) (server-start) In a command window, I type "emacsclient <file>" and the existing emacs ( i.e. the server) window will change to allow editing of the file named <file> if I open a second command window and run the same command but for a different file nothing happens. Emacsclient does not return either; so it must be connecting. If I close the first buffer ( before or after running the second command) using the C-x # key combo as suggested by documentation,I do not see the second file. I have no errors but any further use of the server only results in emacsclient being hung up waiting for the server to return a finish signal. I cant believe the server cannot handle more than one connection at a time or only one connection period as I am seeing. What am I doing wrong.
