I rather dislike VI and that is the only editor (besides ex and ed) available on the Cray systems here at NCSA. Does anyone know if there has been a successful port done of any flavor of emacs to the Cray? Thanks for any help anyone can offer. Paul Fons Coordinated Science Laboratory 1101 W.

GNU Emacs hasn't officially been ported to the CRAY under UNICOS (but you might want to check with the folks at CRAY and the U of Minn Supercomputer Center), but if you're willing to work a tad, try Emacs on your friendly neighborhood workstation, and use ftp-find-file and ftp-write-file to read and write files on the CRAY. -- Skip Montanaro (montanaro@sprite.crd.ge.com)

A friend of mine who works at Cray uses GNU emacs, on both a Cray-2 and a Cray-X/MP. The speed with which it loads lisp libraries is nothing short of astounding, especially on the 2. -- Mike Haertel <mike@stolaf.edu> ``There's nothing remarkable about it.
