[comp.emacs] c-mode in small emacses

bitbug@vsi1 (James Buster) (09/02/88)

Which of the small emacses (MicroGNU, MicroEmacs, Jove, etc) have a c-mode
similar to that of GNU Emacs? I rather like GNU Emacs on my Sun,
but alas DOS can't handle it.

Jove has a fairly good c-mode.
It handles indentation, paren matching  ([{}]), comments etc.

Jove is really IMHO the most capable of the  small emacses.  It is also
the best on an IBM for screen speed, etc.

Also, It was posted to Comp.sources.unix most recently as Jove 4.
