   Scott Fritchie and Mark Henning (fritchie@stolaf.edu &
   henning@stolaf.edu) are working on a port of GNU Emacs.  I've been
   swamped, or I would have actually seen what they have running so far,
   and could tell you something about it.

Well, things are mostly done.  I'm thinking this weekend we'll
actually try to link the entire thing, which will take a *long* time.
We've been thinking of moving everything down to our friendly Amiga
store to compile on an A3000 (evil grin...).  There's little hope that
it will work after we find all the functions we forgot to include or
not include, but theoretically it ought to.

Yeah, right.....

Anyway, this project started in late January.  Both Mark and I are
graudating seniors, so we've been busy making sure we graduate and
bowl at least once per week.  An optimistic release date, probably
with bugs, will be in two weeks (Finals?  Who needs to study for
finals?).
