91 | ** multi-tty does not work correctly. |
92 | If the server is started from a tty frame and emacsclient creates an | |
93 | X11 frame, the tty frame gets confused, it thinks it is an X11 frame | |
94 | when trying to do a C-z. This worked with server.el version 1.136, it | |
95 | broke after that. | |
