I have gotten several requests for a summary of what I found out about
Dandelion archives (Xerox 1108/9).

The LispUsers' archives are on nervous.cis.ohio-state.edu under
/pub/lispusers/medley, and are pretty complete.  I now have the entire
archives on IBM format disks (4 1.44Mb disks), and the big thing to do
now is transfer them (via 19.2K link) between my IBM and the Xerox
using Kermit.  Anyone know of any better ways to do this short of
EtherNet?

There are also some PCL and X3J13 archives on arisia.xerox.com, but
they are pretty much duplicated on nervous. 

Hope this helps.

Anyone know of a Emacs (or Zmacs) implementation for the Xerox
machine?  I really don't want to give it up, and it seems like it
should be pretty simple to do considering how much of Emacs is in
Elisp.  I know that TI and Bolix (I don't want to say the forbidden
word) both ship Zmacs, so I am wondering where it is for the Xerox.

Chris
