I am using an AT&T Unix PC, running something that looks most like SysVr3, with a m68000. I am a GNU Emacs user, but for small tasks---quick edits, E-mail, posting, and so on, an editor that start quicker, though it lacks most of gemacs' functionality, would be nice to have. Something that retains the emacs keymappings, the kill ring, and small details like that would be nice. Jove is okay, but maybe a little large (anyone know where I can get a copy, they just took it off osu-cis, and I can't ftp ...). Is there anything out there that might fit my needs? I would appreciate E-mail replies, as this group is not in my feed ... Toodles and cheers, John -- John Lacey, john@basho.uucp, or basho!john@cis.ohio-state.edu

I haven't used it in a while (I prefer Vi for quick editing tasks). I believe it is availble from the author's machine at midas.mgmt.purdue.edu. It is also available from uunet.uu.net.
