I try to be brave and switch from vi to emacs. Now, I set up Emacs 26 on macOS via homebrew and start Emacs as daemon in the background.

I can use files using emacsclient -t. However, whenever I bring the Terminal into the background emacsclient exits within a few seconds.

See example Video here: https://cloud.familie-ganter.de/s/QwbK8cFBHnPjQ4d

I did a plain install. My init file does not contain anything except what you see in the video. The funny thing is whenever I start emacs directly in the Terminal, nothing at all happens when bringing it to the background.

What seems to be the problem? I am lost …

I expect it to be something dumb and simple -- so please be nice, this is my first stackoverflow post.

  • I don't agree? Also why I don't have the permission to close questions on my own. But you don't think a site that is *Q&A for power users of Apple hardware and software* would be more appropriate? – Scott Hunter Oct 23 '19 at 19:11
  • **Ha!** I can answer my own question. Updating to `emacs 26.3`did solve the Issue, it does no longer appear. Strange though. --- now, how do I close this question ? – Thomas Ganter Oct 24 '19 at 08:30
  • if you think your answer is useful, you could post it and accept it. Alternatively, just delete it – Rorschach Oct 24 '19 at 15:59
