My apologies for being so late with this, but finally
I have posted my Emacs setup file for the MIX Editor.

This setup is by no means perfect, and I am sure many of you
will have better ideas on how I did some of the conversions.
If you do make changes, I would like to know so that my 
setup can be updated.

My wish list --

1. You still have to type the file name to exit MIX (^X ^F),
since I did not modify the editor to use a variable
to keep the file name.

2. I would like to fix delete line (^K) but too many troubles
with the MIX =JL command. Any ideas?

3. Blank compression is still a problem.  I have turned it 
off in this setup.

Enjoy, and keep me informed.  Thanks.

; Because of the problem with using the	=JL

; In EMACS, ^k deletes to end of line, and hitting
; ^k a second time will	delete the line	break.
; If 2 windows are open	in MIX,	doing a	=JL to
; delete the line break	will scroll EVERYTHING up,
; including the	second window!
;
; More often than not an entire	line will be deleted, so
; ^k is	made to	delete the line, and esc-k is made to
; delete to end, if it is absolutely needed.
