I normally work with Gnu Emacs on a Unix system, but need to use a
laptop for work at libraries and archives. With the untimely death of
my Tandy 200, I plan to buy one of the new small DOS laptop machines
(probably a Toshiba 1000), and would like to be able to run a version
of Emacs for note-taking and light editing. It would be terrific if
the editor understood modes for text and C and/or could be programmed
in emacs lisp, but "feel" and key-mapping close to Gnu Emacs is more
important than bells and whistles. After years learning the quirks of
Gnu Emacs, I don't look forward to learning another set of quirks for
a DOS editor.
Any recommendations? Is there a Microemacs that might fill my needs?
As we do not have access to ftp, I'd appreciate suggestions of public
domain or shareware source available from uucp archives. Thanks.
