problem

[Subhaditya Bhattacharya]

Hi,

I have a new mac system in my hand. I installed emacs which I use most often to edit my programs. However, here I can't open the file from shell 'in a new window' with the command: 

'emacs filename &'

Although it does open with 'emacs filename' in the shell. However, to make sure the programmes run correctly, I need to open several of them at a time and run it in the same shell. 

I would be extremely happy to get help from you in this regard.

Thanks,

Subhaditya
