I have uploaded a patched release of Emacs 19.34 compiled with DJGPP:

  ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/emacs.README
  ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/em1934*.zip

This is primarily a bug release; as far as I can remember, no 
significant new features were added.  In particular, the crashes on NT 
and when 22 environment variables are defined should now be gone.

This is the last upload of Emacs 19 (unless somebody reports a grave bug
that requires immediate solution).  I have switched to Emacs 20 two months
ago and I don't use or maintain Emacs 19 anymore.  But it will take time
until I upload a binary release of v20, since IMHO it still has too many
known bugs and untested features; it is also significantly slower than
Emacs 19, for now. 

So if you use Emacs, you should probably either download this release or 
get the GNU distribution of Emacs 20.2 (the latest version) and compile 
it on your machine; it builds right out of the box.

Please read the file emacs.README *before* you begin to download the 
package.  Note that the way files are divided between the zip files has 
changed since the last release (due to changes in files' sizes), so don't 
be tempted to download, say, only em1934b.zip or em1934r1.zip alone.

As usual, please post any problems you might have to comp.os.msdos.djgpp
news group first, especially if they seem like DOS- or DJGPP-specific.
