[comp.os.os2.programmer] Want Emacs for OS/2

jrv@demon.siemens.com (James R Vallino) (09/20/90)

A friend of mine is looking for a version of one of the public Emacs's which
can be run under OS/2.  The DOS versions should be able to run in the
compatibility box but is there a version which does not have that
restriction?

Thanks!

You can call my Fidonet BBS at (306) 966-4857 (2400 baud or lower).  The file
you want is in the "Family: Word Processing" area and is called UE310OS2.ZIP
You probably also want some of the other UE310 files (DOC, CMD, etc.)  The 
source code is also there.

This is a full screen application, not a PM based one.  There are other
word processors available as well (SEDT is another full screen one, as well
as a few PM ones).

I also have the file PKZ102-2.EXE available, which is the OS/2 version of
PKZIP (I saw someone else was looking for that).  It should be in the 
FAMILY: ARCHIVERS area.

Sorry, but we currently do not have FTP access (although that should change
by the end of the year).
