	Editors are indeed quite a religious subject.  As such I won't
bore anyone by attempting any such comparision.  However it has occured
to me that the reason MicroEMACS 3.10's default user interface is
different from GNU emacs is simply my unfamiliarity with GNU (I have
never owned a machine large enough to run it).  Would there be any GNU
users out there that would be interested in writting an alternative user
interface for MicroEMACS 3.10 to make it work like GNU?  I am fairly
certain that the macro language is up to it, and if there is any place
it is not, I can upgrade it.
