Well don't know where to start to search for the solution to this
problem: Gnus crashes XEmacs when I want to post, reply or follow-up to
a message in news-groups.
Fatal error: assertion failed, file xlwtabs.c, line 1997, *reply_width > 0 && *reply_height > 0
Fatal error (6).
but this is not all the whole screen is full with messages ( when I
start XEmacs in a terminal.

I am sorry I don't really know what you mean.
OK I switched to emacs and gnus, _after_ gnus in XEmacs started to
crash. It happens (here) with the unstable as well as the stable
gnus-versions.
And yes I often try to use emacs and XEmacs....
How can I find out that I used ( or am using) gnuclient ?
the only thing I found in ~/.xemacs/init.el
'(gnuserv-program (concat exec-directory "/gnuserv"))

Well after I got a automatic reply telling me that until the 30. of
August I need to wait, I figured to install a _Beta_ version of
XEmacs. ( 21.5.b17)
All I need is a editor with printing capabilities and being able to post
and respond to news-group messages this Beta version does seem to work
alright.
