Emacs has been available for quite a while on Z80s running CP/M. There is a product called Mince (which means Mince Is Not Complete Emacs), distributed by Mark of the Unicorn. In fact, I've heard it rumored that Mince and PerfectWriter had common origins at one time. Mince doesn't have an extensibility language, but if I remember correctly it does have keyboard macros. You can also edit files much larger than your 64K of RAM... Mince implements a software demand paging system to enable it to maintain buffers larger than available RAM. -- Bruce Robertson UUCP: cbosgd!utah-cs!utah-gr!stride!bruce ARPA: stride!bruce@utah-gr.arpa
