Hello!

Does anyone know if the FSF CDROM with MS-DOS executables for most of
their major applications is out yet? It was supposed to appear sometime
in September, last I heard.

If it is already out, and you have it, please let me know what you
think! I assume that it is *not* just a collection of the stuff you can
find under /gnuish/ on SIMTEL; the version of Emacs 19.29 there didn't
seem to be complete, and had some cursor problems. As another example I
have used an OS/2 emx-port of ispell, which also runs under DOS, but its
usefulness was limited: when spellchecking a file (using codepage 850),
the program would not accept characters above code 127 when asking for
input (as in editing the word or suggestion). That is a bit of a problem
when dealing with most European languages!

If the FSF itself has made sure the distribution is up to the standards
they usually apply I can't wait to get my hands on this CD!
