Hi GNU's
No this is not a bug report, infact I am very enthousiastic about
your editor. As far as I know it is the best programmers editor around,
because of its emmense flexibility. Another advantage is the number of
different machienes that it is available on. But....
I also do a lot of work on IBM compatible machienes, not using UNIX.
Now I was wondering if you know about a copy of EMACS that will work under
DOS. I am familiar with an editor called BRIEF which claims EMACS compatebility
but actually is far from ( also it costs money ) and a shareware version
which has similar keybindings, but us severely cripled. Is there a full
version of EMACS for DOS out there ? Or better yet one that would work
under MS-windows ?
I thank you much for you attention, and hope you will be able to keep
supporting the GNU principles,
