I have hacked up a version of GNUemacs (18.53) that uses SunOS 4.0 dynamic linking and shared libraries. The trick used was to mmap() the data and bss segments instead of using unexec(). In theory this should allow emacs to run with less real memory and multiple emacses running will share text, data, and bss that have been saved. It appears to work but I am looking for people to beta test it before I let it loose on the public. The diffs are quite minor and it is most of the code is in a new module. -David Robinson david@elroy.jpl.nasa.gov
