How can I run emacs in gnome terminal without popup interface?

Question

Just like using emacs on putty. I just transfered to Ubuntu from windows.

I also got error message when I tried to open a matlab .m file using emacs.

Code: emacs job.m

701 $ emacs job.m
Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
Warning: X locale modifiers not supported, using default
Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*" to type FontStruct
Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-helvetica-medium-r-*--*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1" to type FontStruct

Besides, in the IDE of emacs, all the characters are not readable.

Thanks a lot for any help.

Answer 1

To run emacs in the Terminal without a GUI (i.e., without it creating a graphical window for itself), use:

emacs -nw

The -nw flag stands for "no window."
