[net.emacs] GNU Emacs EDT Emulation Available: Guinea Pigs Wanted

mike@yetti.UUCP (Mike Clarkson ) (05/13/86)

I have an EDT emulation for GNU Emacs that is based on the EDT emulation
for Gosling's Emacs sent out on the net a couple of years ago by Lynn Olson
at Tektronics.  This emulation was widely distributed as the file edt.ml
in the maclib directory of most Emacs distributions.

However, as this is my first elisp hack, I would like a few brave souls 
to volunteer to be guinea pigs to root out any nasties hidden in the code.
I am appealing especially to those dedicated EDT phreaks who use both EDT
and GnuEmacs, and are likely to spot the subtle differences between my
emulation and EDT. What I would like to do is release it to a few people
for testing, checking and suggestions, and then I will release it to the net.
I would also be interested if some GNUrus would look at the code to see
if there are some better/cleaner/faster ways of doing some of the things
that I have done.

If you are interested, and are the kind of EDT phreak referred to above,
e-mail me and I will send you a copy of the emulator, and a (scanty)
documentation file.  If I don't reply, it means either your message
vapourised, or I have sent it out to enough people as it is, and you
can look for it shortly in all of the usual places (net.emacs net.sources...)
