We are looking at purchasing Un*x workstations, and the
likely choices are Suns (plural) or Iris (singular). We are
already using GNU emacs on VMS, and it would be very nice to
have the same editor all over (with uEmacs on Macintoshes
just to be complete).

1. Is there a version of GNU for
   (a) Sun?
   (b) Iris?

2. If so, how well do they integrate into the software
   development environment, how are windows handled, can the
   mouse be used, etc.?

Thanks in advance,

Niall
