****************************************** I have been using Microemacs under the Mac OS for quite a while now. I am very pleased with it, and, although it's not GNU, it still is the best PD software I have tried on the Mac. It's fast, supports all your memory, has nice window and window/mouse management system, etc. It is VERY, VERY usable. I find a shell in a buffer useless, since I just switch to another application in multifinder, and none of the MAC OS applications I use comes up with anything I would want to process in a window anyway. One thing, though, it lacks is the ability to print from it. Major shortcoming as far as I am concerned. A minor problem is that it doesn't remember its window size and window location between launchings. In any case, big thanks to Earle Horton for doing such a nice job for the rest of us. ivo
