Is the release of GNU emacs for the Apollos which was sent to ADUS
just the changes, or does it include a ready to run editor? If not,
where can we get the necessary sources?

The tar file Leonard Zukoff has made available is just the changes. GNU Emacs is available from prep.ai.mit.edu, in the file /u2/emacs/edist.tar. There is also a compressed version, though I couldn't get a clean copy of that (if you do grab the compressed version, remember that you'll have to decompress it on a UNIX machine - it won't decompress on an Apollo). Also, when grabbing tar files, make sure to set your FTP mode to binary. If you can't FTP, you can order it directly from the Free Software Foundation, at a cost of $150 for a tape containing GNU emacs, GDB, MIT Scheme, Hack, Bison (yacc), the X window system and GNU chess. For an additional $15 you can get a manual. The FSF address is: Free Software Foundation 1000 Mass Ave Cambridge, MA 02138 -SSS

Or do I need to get hold of some diff files from ADUS? I'm specifically concerned about GNU emacs and X windows.
