Unipress Emacs is an out of the box emacs which will run on AIX.  This
is not an endorsement.  I use GNUemacs, personally, and have never
used Unipress emacs.

I've also seen people use the Andrew editor, the one that does
integrated text and graphics.  I have no idea where it is available
outside of IBM, and it probably doesn't qualify as a vendor supported
editor.

There is one internally in IBM, but that doesn't help you, of course.
It is more of an xeditish beast.

Speaking for myself, of course.

I don't remember the name of the company which sells it, but I think you can
find out in the _RT PC Hardware/Software Catalog_ (a white softbound book that 
is pretty much aged beyond usefullness [1987 or so]).  Could be that the
same company is still selling it.  I assume they provide support since
they are asking money :-).

As regards to GNU Emacs, (I would suggest you make sure you have the latest
version (18.55) for AIX), in the file etc/distrib, you will find order
information for manuals and reference cards.  Invest in 1 or a few manuals.
It is $15 for 1, or $60 for 6 GNU Emacs manuals.  It's well worth the price.

Where I used to work they used Unipress emacs on the RT.
So if you insist on using an editor that will cost you alot
of money its a choice.

The Andrew Tool Kit is available free on the X11 tape in the
``contrib'' directory, and is also available from the ITC
(Information Technology Center) at CMU.  It works on 4.3 RT and
AIX 2.2.1 under X.
