Some days ago I found about the existence of this news-list (so I havn't read many of the previous contributions), and now I have some questions: - has anybody done a (full working) implementation of Emacs (and what version?) for ROS 3.x ? (in the moment we have some problems with the shell-on-region and similar commands, with the ^G aborting, with file-insert (where Emacs doesn't see all files that he should), and some more...) - what is the presently distributed version of GNU Emacs? (18.45??) Is there anyone in europe who owns an up-to-date distribution tape, or do I have to question for it in the US? (There seems to be no fast way to get a tape from west germany to US and back in only a couple of weeks...) Thanks to everyone who answers (via personal electronic mail or to the public list).

Juergen Wagner has 18.41. The address I use to reach him is
unido!iaoobel!wagner. He sent me a tape in late March, on which I
dumped 18.41 and sent it back to him. I believe he got it in
mid-April, and has offered to do European redistribution. Drop him a
note. He's in Frankfurt.
