Stefan, thank you, but you loose me. What is a "control window"? I'm
running ediff in emacs. With the Mx-ediff command Emacs displays two
vertical windows. One displays one file and the other window displays
the other file. There is no "Ediff control window" that I can see.
I should note that I'm running Devuan (Debian without systemd) and I
have no desktop environment.
