- MicroEMACS version 3.11 Beta for the RISC OS desktop.
-
- The is a version of uEmacs 3.11 with a 'terminal' driver added to make
- it run in a RISC OS window under the desktop. Features over and above
- the standard distribution are:
-
- * A resizable desktop window, with reverse video mode lines.
-
- * An icon bar icon to restore the window when it has been closed.
-
- * Loading (finding) of files by droping them on the icon.
-
- * Inserting files by droping them on the window.
-
- * Finding text files by double clicking on them.
-
- * A RISC OS save dialogue box (it even updates the file name now!)
-
- * Mouse support to place the cursor, select areas, move the mode
- line and vertically scroll the window.
-
- * 'Button' clicks from the vertical scroll bar.
-
- * WIMP slot size extention when memory is exhausted (note that this
- is a feature of CLib 3.75 and not of my code).
-
- * Preserving of file type, attributes, load address and exec address
- but note date stamp ;-). The file type is displayed on the mode
- line after the file name. This is added in a way that it can be
- extended for other machines.
-
- * Buffer name is extended with the directory name if the directory
- is a single character that is not reserved ($,% and so on).
-
- * The RISC OS window can have its colour adjusted by changing the
- template file.

-
- The code here is made from a release of uEmacs that came from Paul Moore
- and has a number of features that were added by him (such as the file name
- compleation support for RISC OS). This is not the same release as the
- previous version and thus lacks some of the features of the previous 3.9f
- release such as the variable size tabs which had been added to the last
- sources I had by Andy Bray. I may at some point try to put this back in.
