Re: Open Documents in the same XEmacs window

2008-02-20 Thread Richard Copley
I installed the Windows binaries for XEmacs, rather than using the cygwin version. So I'm not too sure if this is the right place to ask this question. I created a shortcut to xemacs.exe in my SendTo folder. I then select a document, right-click and then SendTo - XEmacs. But this

Portability to non-Windows systems is of course a problem but xcopy is present on every install of Windows that has ever existed going back to some very old version of MS-DOS so it is probably one of the most portable commands in existance on this platform. Well, you'd think.
