> Context : I was in an "emacsclient -t" over ssh session. I noticed emacs
> didn't respond (but I don't know if it was emacs or the ssh connection),
> so I started another ssh session, ran "emacsclient -t" again but only
> part of the emacs frame was drawn (maybe just the mode line, I'm not too
> sure I didn't pay much attention) -- I guess that's when it crashed
> because when I tried starting emacsclient again, nothing happened.
