   I've just tried WinEMACS, and it's great...

   However, my main use of Emacs on a Unix machine is to run VM, and
   when VM attempts to run POP, it runs up against the "asynchronous
   processes not yet implemented" problem.

   Anyone got any bright ideas about how I can get this going?

   and no, running Linux on the PC is not an option, unless you can
   suggest a way I can run Word and Schedule+ under Linux!

   Any ideas welcome,
   Rachel

Rewrite MessDOS! :)

Seriously, you simply can't do it on DOS. One possibility (which I do
not know how practical) is to take Novell DOS7, check out whether what
they say is true (about multitasking) and write the approriate stubs
for Emacs.
