Does anyone have a version of Emacs (or uemacs) that runs under System V? I would like to use this editor on my AT&T 3B2/300 and thus far have not had much sucess with finding a version what will run on it. Could someone please mail me the src, or tell me of a place that I can ftp it from? Or better yet, a lot of other people may also want this program and it maybe be worth a post. Thanks for any info/help you can give me. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Eckhardt | jte@psuvax1.BITNET 736 W.

Thanks for any info/help you can give me. we have uemacs 3.7 up and running on our 3b2's, so if you can get this, it definitely works (however, it doesn't exactly like the 4425 terminals -- something's not quite right with the termcap, I think). we have micrognuemacs too, but haven't had time to install it. I don't have the src or I'd mail it to you, but some kind netter out there probably will anyway.

GNU Emacs runs just fine on any flavor of 3B, and lots of other SysV
machines. Note the "Posting-Front-End:" line above tacked on by the
news-reply function. (I read and write both mail and news inside GNU
Emacs. Cbstr1 is a 3B15.)
It can be ftp'd from prep.ai.mit.edu. Look in /u2/emacs.

Thanks for any info/help you can give me. Emacs-tc is in the AT&T Toolchest. It uses the terminfo database. A company wide source license goes for $900. Peyton Yanchurak bellcore!pyuxe!pwy

i have gnuemacs running on my 3b2/300 under 5.3. YOu are welcome to the objects if you want them. Alternately you can ftp if from mit and recompile yourself, after modifying the config file appropriately. The only problem with this is that it takes lots of disk space to install the thing. Let me know if anyone out there wants it and i'll arrange for anon ftp from my 3b2. Simon ps: you MUST have 5.3 to run this object code. pps: it works fine in layers on the dmd (except for the ^S/^Q problem)

In order to avoid letting folks be misled, let it be widely stated and
understood that GNU Emacs does *NOT* require System V Release 3. It
runs just fine on System V.anything, with nearly identical ease across
the board. I am running it on a V.2.1.1 3B15 at the moment, and have
it installed on V.[23] 3B2s and V.0 VAXen as well.
pps: it works fine in layers on the dmd (except for the ^S/^Q problem)
If you have problems with GNU Emacs in DMD layers, it is probably
because you (incorrectly) have your DMD set up for flow control. In
the Host Options menu, make sure you have Gen Flow set to OFF and Pass
Flow set to YES. I have no troubles with ^S/^Q at all in this manner.

Karl is correct about the sysV problem; I meant that **MY** object code needed sysv.3 (ie if someone just wanted my code and did not want to recompile his/her own). That's why the note said ``object code'' not just ``code''. sorry for any misunderstanding. In fact the gnu i use as compiled using the att-sys5.2.2.h config file. (or whatever it is actually called). Inasfar as the ^s/^Q problem goes: thanks for the hint. I'll try that.
