The newsgroup gnu.epoch.misc (which is a bi-directional copy of the
mailing list epoch@cs.uiuc.edu which concerns the program 'Epoch'.

Epoch 4.2 is a modified version of GNU Emacs 18.58 with several major
enhancements:

   * Multiple X window support.

   * Marked and styled regions of text.

   * Support for proportional and variable-sized fonts.

   * Support for 8-bit clean fonts (ISO, Latin-1, etc.).

   * Asynchronous communication with other X clients (e.g., the
     window manager).

   * Mouse-dragging with highlighting to support mouse-based cut and
     paste.

   * Access to raw X-Window objects.

Some minor enhancements include various bug fixes and improved option
handling.

Epoch is available by anonymous ftp on `cs.uiuc.edu'.

Write to epoch-request@cs.uiuc.edu for information on obtaining epoch
other than via anonymous FTP.
