Or, is there another shareware EMACS for MS-DOS boxes that is superior to the two that I have mentioned? Basically, it's like this: Choose Freemacs if you want the best GNU Emacs emulation and don't need to edit files >64K. Choose MicroEMACS if you want to be able to run the exact same program on both DOS and Unix. -- --russ I'm proud to be a humble Quaker.
