  Several people have expressed interest in a version of EMACS
for DOS.  In the past, I have used microEMACS on PCs, and it
is a rather nice version.  I also appreciate the fact that
its meta-language is something besides some variant of LISP,
since I have never been able to really understand LISP. 
(IMHO LISP is really a retirement home for deleted
parentheses ;-).)
  I understand that microEMACS is available for quite a few
platforms, too, so it makes good sense to me to use one
editor across whatever systems you use.
