[comp.emacs] Emacs for MS-DOS machines

dsill@NSWC-OAS.ARPA (Dave Sill) (06/16/87)

What's the latest and greatest emacs for MS-DOS?

I'm familiar with microemacs (don't ask me what version), but I was
hoping to get something more complete.  I've heard of Jove, but I
don't know what its capabilities are.

Freemacs sounded interesting, so I ftp'd a copy from simtel20.  There
doesn't seem to be any documentation of the key bindings, and I can't
seem to find any help commands.  It also doesn't seem to work right
when I put the name of the file I want to edit on the command line.
It reads the file in, but leaves me in minted.edd.

Please respond to me and I'll summarize.
