This mail message was forwarded to me this summer from someone who got
it from the new network.  I successfully installed the latest version
of GNUemacs on a DECstation 3100 (ultrix) with the following information.

It turned out that I had merely specified the wrong configuration
files.  For anyone else out there who's interested -- when you're
instructed to include the right "m-" and "s-" files in config.h, that
means m-pmax.h and s-bsd4-2.h to those of use using ds3100's.

18.55 corrected some of the problems I was having with an earlier
version.  The popup "filecard" menus are really neat, too.
