- Freemacs is a programmable editor. The .EXE file is only 21K because
- it only contains a language interpreter and text editor primitives. The
- bulk of the programming is done in MINT, which is a string-oriented
- language. Freemacs is yet another Emacs clone. Emacs was first written
- at MIT by Richard M. Stallman.
-
- There are a number of Emacs clones for the PC available. Freemacs
- has three distinguishing characteristics:
-
- o Freemacs is free, and it was designed from the start to be programmable.
- o Freemacs is the only IBM-PC editor that tries to be like GNU Emacs.
- o Freemacs can only edit files less than 64K in length.
-
- You may freely copy this software. I only ask that you send improvements
- back to me for incorporation into the package for the rest of us. The
- distribution is available from one or more of the following sources:
-
- EMACS16 ARC The executables and MINT code.
- EMACS100 ARC Zenith Z-100 version. Requires EMACS16.
- EMACSPEL ARC Spelling checker.
- EMACSEGA ARC A collection of EGA utilities
- EMAC16S ARC The .ASM source.
