755.0. "Microemacs 3.9 source kit, with spelling checker" by CAMPER::LOMICKAJ (Jeff Lomicka) Mon Sep 28 1987 13:39

Microemacs 3.9:

All sources, an .ARC of the documentation, an .ARC of the spelling checker
sources, an .ARC fo the spelling checker documentation, and an executable
for the Atari-ST (EMACS.PRG) are all now availabe in:
	
	CAMPER::DUA1:[LOMICKAJ.MCIROEMACS39]*.*

Have fun.  The code is full of "#ifdef AMIGA", so I assume that if one of you
has the correct compiler, you will be able to rebuild it.  (Im into Atari, so
I can't help you there.)

I intend to build a VMS .EXE for it also.

755.1	Can't read the .ARC files	COOKIE::WECKER	A wholly owned subsidiary of DEC	`Mon Sep 28 1987 17:28`	9
	re: .0 I'm really interested in the spelling... however, both of the spelling arc files seem to be unreadable. What were they ARC'd with? C�Ald you check them and possibly rebuild them (if necessary). Thanks! dave
755.2	Hmmm. Are ARC's compatible across systems?	CAMPER::LOMICKAJ	Jeff Lomicka	`Mon Sep 28 1987 18:26`	8
	I watched them get ARC'd on an Atari-ST, and had heard that the formats were compatible. Perhaps this is not the case, or perhaps KERMIT killed them. I'll de-arc them tonight or tommorw on the ST and see if I can glean some useful files out of them, and post a note here with my results. (I hate .ARC files anyway, but I got them this way, so I ship'em this way. I prefer to get real bits.)
755.3	They Are	LEDS::ACCIARDI		`Mon Sep 28 1987 20:39`	6
	I'm quite certain that ARChives are cross compatible, since I posted some FS][ scenarios here a while ago that several ST folks ran with no problems. Ed.
755.4	De-arced microemacs docs and spell checker source	CAMPER::LOMICKAJ	Jeff Lomicka	`Tue Sep 29 1987 11:39`	13
	That's good to hear, but in any case, I have de-arced the spelling checker source kit and the Emacs documentation, and the results can be had from CAMPER::DUA1:[LOMICKAJ.MICROEMACS39.EMACSDOC]. and CAMPER::DUA1:[LOMICKAJ.MICROEMACS39.MICROSPELL]. I'm working on generating human-readable forms of the .MSS files. There are some minor incompatibility problems between microScribe and real Scribe, but as soon as they are repaired I will have .LPT and .PS versions of the documentation. I'll let you know.
755.5	VMS version available	CAMPER::LOMICKAJ	Jeff Lomicka	`Tue Sep 29 1987 11:48`	2
	The VMS version is now available in: CAMPER::DUA1:[LOMICKAJ.MICROEMACS39]MICROEMACS.EXE
755.6	New conference for microemacs	CAMPER::LOMICKAJ	Jeff Lomicka	`Fri Oct 02 1987 12:55`	2
	A notesfile for microemacs users, wihtout regard to operating system, now exists as VSG::MICROEMACS
