/* ---------- "A Question about MEmacs" ---------- */
Does anyone know if it is possible to use the set-key command from an executable
file (i.e. emacs_pro) in MEmacs in AmigaDOS 1.3?  This feature, if it exists, is
not documented, but was present in the form of load-keys in the older version
of microemacs.  I am trying to find an editor which I can get to work on all of
the machines I have to deal with and Emacs seems to be worth a try.  If anyone
has any suggestions or comments I would be glad to here them.

Thank you,

Jon

MicroEMACS 3.10 from Daniel Lawerence(sp?) does this. It is also compilable
on several systems so you could use it as your "standard" editor if you so
chose.

The sources are available from comp.sources.misc I believe and possibly
on a Fish disk (probably in the 200 - 250 range).

These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
