As I think I mentioned a couple of weeks back, I use MicroEMACS everywhere. It is freely distributable and has appeared in comp.sources.* and is obtainable via anonymous ftp from various places. It is supplied in both source and binary form and the source will compile fine under almost any dialect of UNIX, VMS, MS-DOS, OS/2, the Amiga, Atari ST, etc. It is nice to be able to use the same editor everywhere. It also will permit the user to shell out to the OS and have STDOUT from whatever command was run put into its own window. Hence it works nicely with tcc or your favorite command-line compiler.... -- ______________________________________________________________________________ Internet (vastly preferable) : rja@edison.CHO.GE.COM UUCP (if you've got no choice): ...uunet!virginia!edison!rja ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Friday (frai-de) n.
