I'm trying to get Micro-Emacs (version 3.7) to play. This version appears
to have been compiled for an IBMPC without color. When I start it up, it
reads the emacs.rc file, and bind keys etc.  The mini-buffer displays
properly, but despite my efforts thus far, I have not been able to see
anything on the rest of the screen.

As far as I can tell, it works just fine (unless one happens to find it
necessary to SEE what your editing!)  I've tried running it on: Compaq
Portable II, Compaq Portable III, Toshiba-1200 and a Compaq-286 Deskpro 
with a VGA display, and it behaves the same on all three, so I suspect 
that its not a display problem, but if I knew, I'd not be posting the plea.

Unless its of general interest, please reply via mail..

Thanks in advance,
Dale
