No Jim, it was not a port of GNU EMACS, but a version of MicroEmacs
made to be command compatible with GNU. The real GNU EMACS is much
bigger and has a lot more functionality. It will probably be a while
before we see it on an Atari.

I am still waiting for Epsilon to be available for the ST. It is a
commercial EMACS that has been around for PC-DOS for a few years and
has been getting rave reviews on the net. Does anyone know who makes
it?
