I seem to recall someone claiming to have ported Gosling EMACS mpx code to 4.1c. Am I smoking rope or what? If it has been done already would anyone be willing to part with it? Tnx.

A few weeks ago, somebody claimed to have a version of mchan.c that was required to run Gosling's Emacs on 4.1c. I was unable to reach this person by mail - perhaps others had difficulty, too. A fix this important is surely worth distributing via net.sources, yes ? It'd be much appreciated around here... Michael Ellis - Fairchild AI Lab - Palo Alto CA - (415) 858-4270

Centre, Amsterdam, we did it ourselves, tired of waiting. It took me about one day of digging in the Emacs sources -- after an unspecified time needed to find out about pseudo terminals and other tricks. I won't post to net.sources, because I'm not sure whether this reaches you (we don't receive it in Europe). But maybe teus@mcvax.uucp knows a way to distribute it to interested (and licenced!) parties out there.
