But mice are not incompatible with emacs at all!  And of course it
allows multiple windows and (require 'job-control) shells and compiles
and greps and whatever.

I sure get frustrated using MacWrite, for example.  Yes I can point to
where I want to go and define a "region" to kill and yank (cut and
paste), but I sure wish I had a way to point somewhere and type ^T.  I
am a lousy typist, having gotten used to supportive editors.  So I use
Mac microEmacs for heavy editing at this point.  I'd love to have a
year to port GNU...  With the 2 or 4 meg memory and 68020 upgrades, it
ought to be a respectable citizen even on that "little" machine (as
long as you didn't have to launch it too many times a day).  But then,
Apple is supposed to be bringing out Unix, so I'll wait just a bit.
