			EPOCH under Apollo/Domain SR10.2
			^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Could somebody tell me the basic features of epoch? As far as I know it is a window-based, emacs-like editor (I may be wrong). Some questions to guide your answers are:

	* Does it run under X on Apollo/Domain SR10.2 OS ?

	* How much RAM is required to have a reasonable response ?

	* How many Mbytes of disk-space is required to install it ?

	* Is it an editor that can serve as a programming-environment
	  in a 1st year course in programming ?

	* Is it easy to learn ?

	* Where can I get it (i.e. is it ftp-able or do I have to
	  purchase it) ?

	etc.


Thanks.
