Dear Transputerers,

	A lot of people have been asking about folding editors for PCs etc.
On VMS if you are lucky enough to have the VAXSET tools including LSE the
Language Sensitive Editor you can now fold any language. Fold information is
by default taken from the indentation of the code. This can be overidden using
adjustment statements. This editor does not even need to insert horrible
control characters to define fold lines! Other features of the editor
include the ability to extract comment information written in the code to
produce documentaion although this only works with DEC compilers. This is
the first editor I have found that is better than emacs. Anyone thinking of
writting folding code for emacs, breif etc would be well advised to have a look
at how it's done in LSE.

	**** Disclosure of interests **** - I am sponsored by DEC but flogging
	software isn't in my job description, just thought someone may find
	the information useful.

I am working with a 386 25mhz machine with vga graphics.
To rotate a globe in arbitrary directions, with a map
of the world, is my goal, where the globe has a diameter
of about 500 pixels, with about 10K white pixels (for
country borders) on a blue
circle, with black borders around the circle. My machine may
lack the power to display 30 frames/sec, and compute the
3d transformations of all of the points, so I read about
a transputer in a Byte article of about a year ago.

Apart from that article and reading about 10 news items in
this group, I have no more experience with transputers.
Could some kind soul(s) give me some pointers as to
available transputer cards, good books on transputers and Occam,
the (im?)possibility of accomplishing this goal on my machine
with a brand x transputer? 
Thanks!
