Has anybody succeeded in getting the MicroEmacs V30 (posted to mod.sources last month) to run on an Atari ST? I get warning messages like "pointer subtraction yields a long result" while compiling display.c, and then the linker dies with a seek error while trying to load display.o. This is with the developer's kit C compiler and using the .bat files supplied with the microemacs sources. I see some comments in the code at the relevant places in display.c referring to "Alcyon C hack", but I'm not enough of a C wizard to figure out exactly what's wrong or how to fix it. (Pointer arithmetic? Blecchhh!) Can anyone enlighten me? -Sandra Loosemore (utah-cs!sandra, loosemore@utah-20, decwrl!esunix!loosemor)

I also included "shell escapes" (you can run make etc. from emacs) and a couple of nice things like "cd" and "pwd" If anybody wants it I could post it out (uuencoded?) -- UUCP: ...!seismo!mcvax!ukc!paisley!rh DARPA: rh%cs.paisley.ac.uk | Post: Paisley College JANET: rh@uk.ac.paisley.cs | Department of Computing, Phone: +44 41 887 1241 Ext. 219 | High St. Paisley. | Scotland. | PA1 2BE
