This may seem a kind of funny question for this bboard.  I need a
better emacs to run on a berkley 2.9 pdp-11.  I am currently running
jove, but am far from happy.  Why might you ask am I using a pdp-11,
ie don't they use them as door stops or something?  The department
that runs the machine doesn't charge much for its use.  I use gnu
emacs on a VAX 8600 but with its large executable I feel it will bring
a small machine to its knees.  Does anyone know if micro-emacs runs on
a berkley 2.9 unix machine?  If so, how do you unarc the source?  I
can't seem to find an arc.c anywhere on simtel20.
