Dear M. Stallman, May I introduce myself : my name is Jean-Francois Groff and I'm a student at the french National Institute of Telecommunications, near Paris. I have just discovered, along with a couple of friends here, your absolutely Won-Der-Ful emacs-like editor (I should rather say it looks better than any other editor I've ever seen, including Emacs). Congratulations. We would be interested in a WIMP version of this software product, in order to use it efficiently on our Sun stations. So, if ever it exists... Also, I would like to know about the new GNU developments you're talking about in your "GNU manifesto". You may need to know that our GNU-Emacs bears the version number 18.51 and is dated March 3rd, 1989. Hoping to read from you on GROFF@FRINT51 ! Greetings, Jeff, & my friend : Pulsor. P.S. : I'm sorry to have written this to you in your BUG-address, it was the only one I immediately found.
