I just recieved my updated Hitchhiker's guide to bios from ATARI.
It came in a floppy with Micro Emacs ( by Mark Williams Co.)
This is just a quickie, as I have not even printed out the tutorial for
micro_emacs  yet, but am too excited about it to keep quiet.

Differences from MINCE.
======================
1	Arrow keys work as you'd expect.
2	^X2 creates a new window, but you re not limited to two.
3	^X^B displays active buffers in a new window (like emacs
	and unlike mince).
4	has keyboard macros (^X( and ^X) ).
5	The manual looks (I glanced at it with ``more'') complete.

I actually uploaded the manual, ( >120000 bytes) so that I can get
a hard copy, but with kermit it took me an hour (9600baud connection).
It took only 90 minutes to upload a document of nearly the same size with a 
1200 baud modem (so where's the bottleneck?).

There will be more later, unless someone else posts/mails a review before I
get around to it.
