28 ;;; Commentary:
30 ;; This Lisp code is run in Emacs when it is to operate as
31 ;; a server for other processes.
33 ;; Load this library and do M-x server-edit to enable Emacs as a server.
34 ;; Emacs opens up a socket for communication with clients. If there are no
35 ;; client buffers to edit, server-edit acts like (switch-to-buffer
36 ;; (other-buffer))
38 ;; When some other program runs "the editor" to edit a file,
39 ;; "the editor" can be the Emacs client program ../lib-src/emacsclient.
40 ;; This program transmits the file names to Emacs through
41 ;; the server subprocess, and Emacs visits them and lets you edit them.
43 ;; Note that any number of clients may dispatch files to Emacs to be edited.
45 ;; When you finish editing a Server buffer, again call server-edit
46 ;; to mark that buffer as done for the client and switch to the next
47 ;; Server buffer. When all the buffers for a client have been edited
48 ;; and exited with server-edit, the client "editor" will return
49 ;; to the program that invoked it.
51 ;; Your editing commands and Emacs's display output go to and from
52 ;; the terminal in the usual way. Thus, server operation is possible
53 ;; only when Emacs can talk to the terminal at the time you invoke
54 ;; the client. This is possible in four cases:
56 ;; 1. On a window system, where Emacs runs in one window and the
57 ;; program that wants to use "the editor" runs in another.
59 ;; 2. On a multi-terminal system, where Emacs runs on one terminal and the
60 ;; program that wants to use "the editor" runs on another.
62 ;; 3. When the program that wants to use "the editor" is running
63 ;; as a subprocess of Emacs.
65 ;; 4. On a system with job control, when Emacs is suspended, the program
66 ;; that wants to use "the editor" will stop and display
67 ;; "Waiting for Emacs...". It can then be suspended, and Emacs can be
68 ;; brought into the foreground for editing. When done editing, Emacs is
69 ;; suspended again, and the client program is brought into the foreground.
71 ;; The buffer local variable "server-buffer-clients" lists
72 ;; the clients who are waiting for this buffer to be edited.
73 ;; The global variable "server-clients" lists all the waiting clients,
74 ;; and which files are yet to be edited for each.
76 ;; Todo:
78 ;; - handle command-line-args-left.
79 ;; - move most of the args processing and decision making from emacsclient.c
80 ;; to here.
81 ;; - fix up handling of the client's environment (place it in the terminal?).

105 If set, the server accepts remote connections; otherwise it is local.
107 DO NOT give this a non-nil value unless you know what you are
108 doing! On unsecured networks, accepting remote connections is
109 very dangerous, because server-client communication (including
110 session authentication) is not encrypted."

149 This is only used if `server-use-tcp' is non-nil.
151 Normally, the authentication key is randomly generated when the
152 server starts. It is recommended to leave it that way. Using a
153 long-lived shared key will decrease security (especially since
154 the key is transmitted as plain-text).
156 In some situations however, it can be difficult to share randomly
157 generated passwords with remote hosts (e.g., no shared directory),
158 so you can set the key with this variable and then copy the
159 server file to the remote host (with possible changes to IP
160 address and/or port if that applies).
162 Note that the usual security risks of using the server over
163 remote TCP, arising from the fact that client-server
164 communications are unencrypted, still apply.

973 response to SIGTSTP and SIGTTOU. The server must cease all I/O
974 on this tty until it gets a -resume command.

977 Resume this tty frame. The client sends this string when it
978 gets the SIGCONT signal and it is the foreground process on its

992 `-window-system-unsupported'
993 Signals that the server does not support creating X frames;

997 Print STRING on stdout. Used to send values
998 returned by -eval.
1000 `-print-nonl STRING'
1001 Print STRING on stdout. Used to continue a
