This sounds like it's probably a FAQ, but I use both Emacs & Epoch and
would like to be able to know if am I running Emacs, so that I don't
load Epoch stuff with the inevitable "error in init file."  Is there
an easy way to do this? (e.g., maybe a .epoch file and a .emacs file
could coexist & Epoch would know to load the correct one)  Is there
code I should insert in my .emacs that will conditionally load the
correct elisp files?  Thanks.

Try this in .emacs:

    (defvar running-epoch (boundp 'epoch::version))

    (if running-epoch
      (progn

    [epoch specific stuff here]

      )
