| WHAT IS uEmacs/PK? |
| |
| uEmacs/PK 4.0 is an enhanced version of MicroEMACS 3.9e. Enhancements have |
| been incorporated by Petri H. Kutvonen, University of Helsinki, Finland, |
| kutvonen@cs.Helsinki.FI. |
| |
| WHY IS IT BASED ON AN OLD VERSION OF MicroEMACS? |
| |
| In my opinion 3.9e was the best of all MicroEMACSes. Creeping featurism, |
| growing size, and reduced portability made versions 3.10 and 3.11 less |
| attractive. MicroEMACS 3.9e was one of the few editors that were truly |
| portable between different flavours of UNIX, PC/MS-DOS, and VAX/VMS. It was |
| pretty robust - although not flawless. uEmacs/PK 4.0 includes numerous bug |
| fixes, adds some new functionality and comfort but does not sacrifice the |
| best things (small size and portability). |
