I am posting the following for someone else. However he does read the
newsgroup (comp.os.minix)

--------------------------forwarded message--------------------------

I am very keen on getting minix. However I have the following two
questions still in my mind:

1) I understand that there is an emacs-like editor in minix. I wonder
what major functions are missing from such an editor. Can any of you
minix users tell me what functions is missing from the minix
emacs-like editor that you find most
annoying/disappointed/really-like-to-have-it? 

2) What is minix network capabilities? Ethernet support? TCP/IP or
SLIP or whatever?

Thanks in advance --- Delman.
