I will try.

I have no idea.  You could try, but I don't guarantee it will work.

I don't know if this should work.  Please make sure that you run 
"temacs -batch -l loadup dump".  You also need to copy emacs.exe to its 
bin subdirectory.

If you did all that, please post the exact error message that you see when
Emacs starts.  Does it happen when you run Emacs in the debugger, or from 
the command line?

Thanks, I will change that line to use Sed instead.

I doubt that it will help you, since my copy of Emacs is already quite 
different from the one on SimTel.NET (I have installed various 
improvements that will be in the next version).
