[net.emacs] How can I get Emacs

root@unmvax.UUCP (04/07/84)

 We have Berkeley 4.2. So, I guess the Gosling version is in order, yes?
Is it available for 4.2? How much does EMACS cost. We are a
university, read POOR!

Some questions about the availability of "emacs":

Where can I get a copy to run under V7 unix.  I have a "Perkin-Elmer"
computer, so I need a portable version.  We have "termcap" and "curses".

What language is it written in?

How much does it cost?

How much better is it than the "vi" editor or the "rand" editor?

Please send Email, as I don't normally read this newsgroup.
