I am using xwin over a trumpet winsock and a 38.4 SLIP connection.
emacs 18 works fine, but emacs 19 quits with a hangup error after it
gets too many instructions (i.e. if I type fast or clickthe moouse
while it is processing some keystroke) This only happens over SLIP;
using a slow ethernet connection emacs 19 works reliably.

If you have this error, please resopnd by email or post. (I will
summarize if many others have this error).

Thanks you, sincerely

Acutally, there were actually two different read-me files included with the
demo package at different times - the first had keys in it so that the
software was due to expire sometime in August, and the second was due to
expire sometime in April.

Your packet driver needs to be the shim dis_pkt.dos, and it needs to be
loaded by W4WG (not config.sys) as a real mode driver. The slickest way
to accomplish this is to download the file "faq-wfwg-3.11-2" in the
directory "pub/trumpet/faq" on the anonymous ftp "petros.psychol.utas.edu.au".
This contains an oemsetup.inf which lets W4WG do ALL the work of loading
and unloading for you. I am working on some modifications to this that
will make changing interrupt vectors a part of the standard W4WG setup
options dialogue... For the time being, however, B. Armstrong's oemsetup.inf
is the easiest way I know of to install Trumpet Winsock. Hopefully, Peter
Tattam will consider including some version of it in his distribution.
When I have my own changes in final form, I'll forward tham to him and
B. Armstrong for posting.

Try KA9Q from Demon Internet Service (ftp.demon.co.uk). I think you
should look in the /pub/ibmpc/DIS directory.

I have the software here so can mail if you have no success with ftp.
