It's been done!  Micro Emacs has been ported to MSWin.  You can ftp
it from cica.cica.indiana.edu, currently in the /pub/pc/win3/uploads
directory as MEWIN_OK.ZIP and MEWINDOC.ZIP.  I just downloaded it this
morning so I can't really vouch for it, but it ran fairly good, and
didn't crash, so we'll see.
