[dummy line]

i have a copy of microemacs 3.6 that looks very nice. i have compiled
it on a vax under unix 4.2 and it runs fine. i've been trying to get
it to operate properly on a pc using lattice. it is a standard ibm pc
and lattice ver 3.0.

to compile under this lattice i had to remove the "realloc" function
defined in line.c since this new version of lattice has a realloc and
it does not like two of them.

it does compile correctly and i've tried using several models. under
small (64k code, 64k data supposedly) it runs just fine but is
limited to about 28k of data. compiling unded the D model (64k code
and 1 meg data) it runs horribly slow and it will not load the
emacs.rc file (runs out of room!). under Large it is slower than D
and in either case can't keep up with the repeat key for arrow.

so, the question is; what model REALLY works and is there one that
works on large files and handles redefined keys in .rc files and
is fast enough to be useful?

any help would be appreciated.
