I was directed by my friend Mark Allendar of uiuc Conversation Builder Project to this group for
my questions.  I am hoping someone emailing me a definite answer.

I would like to build epoch for our RISC 6000s running X11R5 and gwm (latest from export).

(1) I write codes very often and love to use emacs (I got it on our RIOS already) for writing C
    but often wish to have true mouse support, easy cut and paste using highlight, and scroll bars.
    Does epoch with gwm offer all these?  BTW, do I HAVE to use gwm with epoch to get any decent
    mouse support at all?  How about twm?  mwm?

(2) Which place of uiuc archives a version of epoch which will definitely buildable on our
    RISC 6000s running 3005/2006 and MIT standard X11R5? (server/libs/rgb/includes/fonts, we
    finally got rid of all IBM X11R3 junk :-)

I would appreciate any pointers very much.  Please email me as I don't read this group.  This
is my first time posting to it.

Thanks in advance to anyone who responds

Best,
