This archive contains the March '93 Windows NT console version of
MicroEMACS 3.11. Why a console version? Some of us command line
jockies don't want a GUI editor; spending most of our time in the
CLI cobbling up code for NT.
Also in this ZIP file you will find the tweaked sources for this port,
including the Makefile and an EMACS.RC file. NTCON.C contains all of
the NT dependant code gluing MicroEMACS to a console. Feel free to
modify, fix or twiddle the code yourself. If you make any useful or
significant changes, please pass them back to me as this is a rather
plain port. In some places I didn't bother with #ifdef WINNT, so
beware. :-)
Due to personal preference the following changes where made to
the defaults:
- buffer windows are not pop ups
- yank leaves the point at the place of insertion
- safe saves are disabled (kludge around a `bug')
- tabs are set every 4 spaces
As well, various small tweaks where made all over the source code
to remove warnings and make it more palatable to a modern compiler.
Copy the ME.EXE executable and EMACS.RC files into a directory in your
path. Use "me" or "start me" to run MicroEMACS from a command window.
The console window can be sized or made full screen and MicroEMACS will
adjust accordingly (NT's console API made this rather painless to
implement).
Full documentation and related files for MicroEMACS itself can be found
on BIX, CompuServe, most other services and The Programmer's Room BBS:
