Some minor changes were needed to some of the code because of S/386's inability to do "char" math (see their release notes), a new m_ and s_ file pair needed to be created, and the keyboard mapping needed to be done. I intend to keep GNU up to the current revision level at this site, and to port over the GNU as, cc, c++, and other utilities as they become available for the 386. For those with the Everex Stream-60 tape drive (or a QIC-36 format drive), I'll dupe you a copy of the source kit directory for the latest GNU Emacs. Of course, you supply the tape (preferably a new one... I don't want to gunk up my heads..) and sufficient reverse postage for this. No charge for the copying. After all, GNU means "free", ergo I won't charge. I have NO INTENTION of doing this for floppies. The source kit is around 17000 blocks big, and I'm not in the business of floppy distribution. Tape is another matter... I shove it in and start it up and forget it... Burt Janz ..decvax!bhjat!bhj
