[comp.sys.apollo] GNU Emacs for Apollos

srt@CS.UCLA.EDU (04/25/87)

Kudos to Leonard at LUCID for a fine port job.  I grabbed his mods
and the latest GNU release from MIT (actually 18.44) and applied
them with little or no trouble.  A couple of minor points:

(a)  Leonard included a modified startup.el in his distribution
but didn't include the corresponding startup.elc.  This means
you should manually remove lisp/startup.elc before starting your
compile, and (if you are really diligent) recompile startup.elc
by using M-X byte-compile-file and then redo your Emacs.

(b)  I ran out of Pure Lisp Space when trying to dump an Emacs.
The fix for this is to slightly increase the PURESIZE in config.h.
I set mine to 150000 (instead of about 125000) and had no 
further problems.

Again, mucho kudos to Leonard!
