I won't do it this way, Thierry. Since I usually have more than one  
Emacs running at the same time I tend to control server business  
tightly.

Anyway, I hope this strange behaviour in daemon mode will be  
corrected before GNU Emacs 23.1 is released. It's outside one's  
imagination that an X client will open inside some terminal  
emulation ... OTOH: a second X11 in my Terminal – I should go ahead  
and patent this before some MS guy does!
