+
+;;; Commentary:
+
+;;; This Lisp code is run in Emacs when it is to operate as
+;;; a server for other processes.
+
+;;; Load this library and do M-x server-edit to enable Emacs as a server.
+;;; Emacs runs the program ../etc/emacsserver as a subprocess
+;;; for communication with clients.  If there are no client buffers to edit, 
+;;; server-edit acts like (switch-to-buffer (other-buffer))
+
+;;; When some other program runs "the editor" to edit a file,
+;;; "the editor" can be the Emacs client program ../etc/emacsclient.
+;;; This program transmits the file names to Emacs through
+;;; the server subprocess, and Emacs visits them and lets you edit them.
+
+;;; Note that any number of clients may dispatch files to emacs to be edited.
+
+;;; When you finish editing a Server buffer, again call server-edit
+;;; to mark that buffer as done for the client and switch to the next 
+;;; Server buffer.  When all the buffers for a client have been edited 
+;;; and exited with server-edit, the client "editor" will return
+;;; to the program that invoked it.  
+
+;;; Your editing commands and Emacs's display output go to and from
+;;; the terminal in the usual way.  Thus, server operation is possible
+;;; only when Emacs can talk to the terminal at the time you invoke
+;;; the client.  This is possible in four cases:
+
+;;; 1. On a window system, where Emacs runs in one window and the
+;;; program that wants to use "the editor" runs in another.
+
+;;; 2. On a multi-terminal system, where Emacs runs on one terminal and the
+;;; program that wants to use "the editor" runs on another.
+
+;;; 3. When the program that wants to use "the editor" is running
+;;; as a subprocess of Emacs.
+
+;;; 4. On a system with job control, when Emacs is suspended, the program
+;;; that wants to use "the editor" will stop and display
+;;; "Waiting for Emacs...".  It can then be suspended, and Emacs can be
+;;; brought into the foreground for editing.  When done editing, Emacs is
+;;; suspended again, and the client program is brought into the foreground.
+
+;;; The buffer local variable "server-buffer-clients" lists 
+;;; the clients who are waiting for this buffer to be edited.  
+;;; The global variable "server-clients" lists all the waiting clients,
+;;; and which files are yet to be edited for each.
