I've used the EMACS editor quite a bit on a VAX UNIX system, but now find
myself working mostly on VAX/VMS. We are considering getting the VMS Emacs
from Unipress, and I was wondering if anyone out there had tried it. I
have used Unipress Emacs on VAX UNIX and have found it *very* slow. Is it
any better on VMS?
Also, how many people out there are running on Intergraph VAXes?

I am posting this for Mr. Lim, he was having difficulty posting it. I point out that the version of GNU Emacs I received, which has a working if slightly brain-damaged dired for VMS, came via anon ftp from cc.utah.edu . ----------------------------------------------------- From: wlim@ai.mit.edu Newsgroups: comp.os.vms Subject: VMS and GNU Emacs I have tried posting this to info-gnu-emacs but didn't get a good response. Can someone tell me if the following are possible with the VMS version of GNU Emacs? 1) A working rmail, dired, ..., modes (modes that involved system calls to VMS) 2) A VMS interactive mode that works inside of Emacs Also have anyone installed Emacs on VMS V5.1-1? Does Emacs work with DECwindows? Thanks in advance. Willie **********************************************************************

Afterall, it was first designed for the 18.52 release. At any rate, would someone please post this, or indicate where it can be found?
