	I got the final parts of the gnuemacs distribution yesterday and
got it un-zooed ( zoo //x in c:/usr/lib/gnuemacs ) with no problems. 
Thanks for the real emacs! I love it. 

	When I ran it I discovered one minor problem: Some of the files
in the lisp subdirectory have underlines in the file names, e.g. 
text_mod.elc, but the program looks for dashes, not underlines, e.g
text-mod.elc. 

	The solution is simple, just change all the underlines to dashes
in the file names.  There are only four or five that need changing, but
one of them is the site-ini file, so you really do need to make the
change!

	The only other problem is that my 1 megabyte machine isn't big
enough. I just ordered 2 Megabytes of memory chips this morning. They
are dowm to about $100 / megabyte, so there is no economic reason not
to have enough memory for FSF software on an ST!
