        Well, it just ain't true! Sorry I don't have the details, but  there
  was an article in Digital Review (tm) a  few  weeks  back  (maybe  someone
  with  access  to  back  issues  can  confirm  this  and  give  more  info)
  describing a product that allowed TPU  source  to  be  run  (and  compiled
  maybe? don't remember) on Un*x machines. had some catchy name  like  TPU/X
  or somesuch. the bottom line is that you CAN have TPU outside of  VMS,  so
  don't write it off too quickly!

        I must confess that as a former TPU hacker who recently switched  to
  GNU Emacs, i have to agree with everybody. YES GNU EMACS is TOO SLOW.  and
  TPU needs to be what GNU is, which is something that you can run  "as  is"
  and have a nice powerful editor, and can tweak if you need to. instead  we
  get dumb EVE and a munged EDT-emulator and lots of hype over  how  WE  can
  do anything with it. My statement:


    I DON'T WANT TO PROGRAM, I WANT TO *EDIT*!

         Quit fooling around! Give us ALL a good editor. I  think  GNU  comes
  closest  to  what  we  want,  but  it  really   is   a   resource   hog...
