I've waited for hours but it never returns. In X, pressing C-g does nothing and the only remedy is to kill the xemacs process. In the terminal, hitting C-g a few times suspends (?) XEmacs, following which it prompts me to Auto-save, then offers to Abort and finally dumps core with the attached backtrace. The trace always seems to hang in process-send-string and the hang is peculiar to XEmacs, I think because with indentical configuration, I don't have this problem with Emacs. Would someone please advise the next course of action? I am totally crippled right now without use of my beloved Gnus at home. -Nevin
