I've also gotten the gnuemacs port running on my Mega-2. It's VERY
impressive. Watching REAL gnuemacs come up on my Atari was a REAL thrill.
It is just like using gnuemacs at work! GREAT JOB!

I do have a couple of problems to work out. The first is, I can't get 
"M-x info" to work. After succesfully finding a file or two, I get the
following message:

"Info file /usr/lib/GNUemacs/info/dir does not exist."

Nowhere in the emacs.zoo or elisp.zoo archives did I find a file named "dir",
so is something missing?

Also, I am running emacs from gulam, and "M-x suspend-emacs" or C-z just
cause emacs to bomb off (2 bombs). I end up in gulam again and everything
seems ok, but when I type exit, I go back to the desktop, not back into
emacs. Any hints? (Sure would be nice if this worked... gnuemacs takes awhile
to get under way, seems that executing loadup.el is the biggest bottleneck)
