You have to modify the "amigados.c" file and recompile. I've been doing
just this for several reasons. 
		1) It doesn't use DeadKeyConvert() so you can't get 8bit
		   characters (it does now)
		2) It couldn't use different fonts. (it does now)
		3) It couldn't use a separate screen or morerows.(it does now.)
		4) It couldn't talk to ARexx (it will soon :-))

Anyway, you can wait for me to post my version of amiga.c (which replaces
amigados.c and ansi.c) and recompile it. Or, you can go in and modify
the amigados.c file and recompile it (but don't recompile the original
with Lattice because it doesn't work right), or you can wait for the binary
I will eventually produce/redistribute. [NB: I use Lattice mostly and some
of the features in my version of amiga.c use Latticisms's like __saveds]

>2.  MicroGnuEmacs:  where can I get it, without have ftp access?

The easiest way is to copy it off a Fish Disk at a dealer near you or send
the appropriate amount to Fred to cause him to eject a disk in your direction.

These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
