On the Macintosh and Atari-ST I use a GNU-Emacs compatible editor called MG (= MicroGnu Emacs). Does this editor (or a similar one) exist for MS-DOS, MINIX and/or SUN-UNIX? Sources (preferably the same for all three systems) or instructions on how to obtain them would be very much appreciated. I cannot ftp, but the address of a UUCP or BITNET server would probably do. Thanks, Ben Lippolt, PTT Netherlands, Neher Laboratories. BITNET/EARN: lippolt@hlsdnl5 UUCP: {backbone}!hp4nl!dnlunx!lippolt -----------

Befoe the requests pile up too deeply, MG is written to be portable across a large range of machines. The sources for version 1a are available on the comp.sources.unix archive at uunet. They imply support the following systems: # distribution note: This distribution of mg 1a is 11 shar files: # mg_1.shar through mg_5.shar system indepentend, termcap, # bsd, sysv, and osk files. # mg_amiga1.shar, mg_amiga2.shar amiga specific files # mg_vms1.shar through mg_vms4.shar # vms and eunice specific files. The contacts list at that time (Nov 1986) looked like: Amiga Lattice C: Mike Meyer: mwm@berkeley.edu ucbvax!mwm Amiga Manx C & VMS: Mic Kaczmarczik: ut-sally!ut-ngp!mic mic@ngp.utexas.edu CCEP001@UTADNX.BITNET OSK & BSD: Bob Larson: blarson@usc-oberon.arpa sdcrdcf!usc-oberon!blarson Now there is a version 2a available, but I didn't see it in comp.sources.unix yet, and comp.sources.misc didn't turn up anything. I think the new version covers more machines. -- /jr jr@bbn.com or bbn!jr

There is a full-source post of MicroEMACS on GENIE in the OS-9 forum. All the source is in C and OS-9's C compilers support very complete libraries, so the editting necessary to port to MINIX should be minimal.

This is from the README file: (version 2a -- May 1988)
These systems are known to work in the current version:
4.2 & 4.3 BSD Unix, SunOs 3.2, Ultrix-32
System V
OS9/68k
VMS
Amiga
Primos
Atari ST
Ms-Dos support is planned, but did not get done in time for this
release. (Jeff Siegal <jbs@eddie.mit.edu> was the one doing it.)
The Ms-Dos files will probably be distributed seperatly when it
becomes available.
Sources (preferably the same for all three
`systems) or instructions on how to obtain them would be very much appreciated.
`I cannot ftp, but the address of a UUCP or BITNET server would probably do.
`
They are on lakesys!netlib:
mg2a/part.uaa 880712 Version 2a MicroGnuEmacs
mg2a/part.uab 880712 Version 2a MicroGnuEmacs
mg2a/part.uac 880712 Version 2a MicroGnuEmacs
mg2a/part.uad 880712 Version 2a MicroGnuEmacs
I have sources, but I don't know if they are up to date.
(They are from 15 May 1988)
