MicroEmacs 3.10 (and all its predecessors) is not key compatible with
GNU. Moreover, command and variable names are different also. Hard to
mix with real GNU.
We have once coocked up a version which was compatible with regard to
keys and command/variable names. It also could handle ANSI function
keys and 8-bit characters. I may still have the sources somewhere.
We have repeatedly tried to contact Daniel Lawrence so we could
combine efforts, but never got a reply.
