  Here at work we have one version of emacs (ie; microEMACS) running on our
VMS cluster, our UNIX VAX, and also on the IBM ATs.  What is nice about it
is being able to use the same editor and key binding files on all 3 systems.
Counting other emacs variants, I suspect that you can get it for almost
any machine ( I've used it on a Prime x50 and PDP-11 as well).  


  According to the microEMACS 3.9i manual sitting here, it is also available
for Atari ST, Amiga, and the Apple Macintosh.

For info on obtaining microemacs you can mail to :  (quoting from the manual)
