Does anyone have experience with the various ports of emacs to DOS? Which is the best? Thanks. --Dwaine

I'd prefer Freemacs (?), a GNU port. --kauto -- ****************** Kauto Huopio (huopio@kannel.lut.fi) ********************** *US Mail: Kauto Huopio, Punkkerikatu 1 A 10, SF-53850 Lappeenranta, Finland * *WARNING!

There is no GNU emacs that will run on PC's. There is, however, MG which is about the same as GNU emacs, but was based on something else. -- Warner Losh imp@Solbourne.COM

You may want to check out MicroEMACS? Its available via FTP from Simtel20. Ive used various versions over the years and found it to be a very good editor. The current author has added new features such as MicroSpell for spell checking. The latest version out I know of is 3.10 but I only have 3.9j (or i or some letter). Bruce (bkahn@archive.rtp.dg.com)
