I am using an HP9000/520 workstation for data acquisition. It runs
HP-UX 5.23, has 2Mb RAM, and 125Mb of disk. I would like to install
a version of emacs on it. The questions are: Given its limitations,
is GNU emacs a sensible thing to try to install? Is there another
version that would make more sense? Is there someone out there who
has already done such a thing? Where can I obtain an HP 1/4" cartridge
tape with the appropriate emacs on it? (The machine is not on the net.)
(As a reference note, I have not installed emacs on any machine before.)

Since the machine is so old, replies are not expected to be of general
interest. Please send replies to:

Thanks.
