i'd like to hear from people regarding their experience
with using emacs-like editors, lint for c, and xenix
on the ibm pc.

i know of three emacs-like editors for the pc -- unipress
emacs, brief by solution systems, and epsilon by lugaru
software.  of these, only epsilon supports (as far as i
know) concurrent processing (i.e. the ability to edit while
compiling etc.), which is one of the main reasons i want
emacs. any users of these or other editors out there.
lets hear from you.

pc-lint seems to be a fairly complete implementation of
lint on the pc.  another lint is pre-c.  any other systems?
what are your thoughts?

i am interested in using xenix on pc-xt for developing
programs for dos.  anybody tackled this issue?  what do
you think of the implementation of xenix?

please respond to this address, and i'll post summaries.
