I've been having trouble uncompressing the emacs 18.55 archives
from the uunet archives. 18.55.Z.00 uncompressed ok, but I'm left
with a 660k file that doesn't execute [doesn't chop itself up into
the smaller source files].
18.55.Z.01 and 02 came through uucp at the right size(256k), but
they won't uncompress. I've taken quite a bit of source from
the uunet archives and have never had any problems like this?
Any tips?

To uncomress them you must do something like: cat *.Z.[0-9][0-9] | uncompress | (de-archiver tar/cpio/whatever) -- Conor P.

I just downloaded emacs from simtel. It does not have a machine header file for my box and I am having problems getting the make to go. If anyone has compiled this monster on a sperry 5000/80 sys 5.3 I would appreciate some advice, machine header file, etc. Thanks Norm Frech < frech@mwraaa.army.mil >

I have been stumbling through EMACS minus any documentation. Can anyone
post, or EMAIL me a SHORT "cheat sheet" of the editor commands?
Thanks
