I would be very interested if some kind soul could post (or e-mail) a source for either or both of these. (Isn't Dan Lawrence at Purdue? I forget.) I have seen mention of MG sources for amiga and for MS/PC-DOS, but not for VMS. Same for microemacs. Are the differences significant? Does anyone have a diff file? Please do not mail me any huge source files, but I would appreciate any pointers that anyone could send me. Thanks in advance. -- Paul Neubauer neubauer@bsu-cs.UUCP!{iuvax,pur-ee}!bsu-cs!neubauer
