This archive contains a number of files to be used with the recent
mod.sources posting of Dave Conroy's MicroEMACS.  The new files support
these new features:

	* GNU Emacs compatibility

	* System V.

	* AT&T UNIX PC 7300/3b1.


  The GNU emacs compatibility is as the crudest possible level, a simple
remapping of existing commands, and a few new ones I couldn't live
without.  Further work is planned, but this should be enough to  help
most people out immediately.  The file gnusymbol.c replaces the
previously distributed symbol.c, and the file gnucmds.c contains my
additions.  You will need to change the contents in the OBJS macro of
your Makefile, or your build scripts on other systems.

  System V is supported in the obvious way with the addition of a new
sys/sysv directory.  The ttyio.c and spawn.c files have been further
decoupled by using reentrant calls to ttopen and ttclose instead of
sharing the termio structures.

  My PC7300 wouldn't work right with the ansi terminal driver because
the scroll region and index/reverse index commands don't appear to work
as needed.  I've reimplemented the insert and delete block operations
using the insert and delete line capabilities.  Not surprisingly, the
vt220 function keys didn't work right, so I threw all the code out. 
Being a "real" Emacs fan, I chucked the arrow keys too.

                            ----------------

There is a continuing discussion of MicroEMACS and GNU compatibility in
net.emacs.  I am attempting to put together a mailing list of people who
are interested in actively pursuing this goal, with intent to make
regular mod.source submissions as progress is made.

The first step was to get this short term fix distributed.  The next is
to try to merge some of the variant versions that are floating around to
grab missing features.  For instance, the MicroEMACS 3.5 posted in
net.sources recently has word wrap, but doesn't have reverse video
modelines or the smart redisplay algorithm.

If you are interested in working on this project, send me mail at:

Compatibility now for the future!
