- I've been bringing up Lucid's version of emacs-19 on my NeXT (using
- PenCom's co-Xist development environment). In doing so, I made use of
- the unexNeXT.c which I found in the NeXT-ified sources for emacs
- 18.57, which works fine with the lemacs-19 sources. It says at the top
- of that file that this was written by Bradley Taylor
- (<btaylor@NeXT.COM>), but a note sent to that address was returned
- "Unknown User".
-
- The problem is that (unlike the other files in the emacs distribution)
- there's no explicit invocation of the GPL at the top of unexNeXT.c.
- I'd like to be able to distribute the NeXT port of lemacs (actually,
- what I want is to have the NeXT changes folded into the Lucid
- distribution directly). The lemacs-19 sources are entirely covered by
- the GPL, and I'd like to get permission to include a standard
- reference to the GPL at the top of unexNeXT.c so it can be distributed
- too.
-
- So how can I find Bradley Taylor - or, failing that, who else can
- provide me with a GPL-ized version of his (or another working)
- unexec.c for NeXT?
-
- Thanks for any help.
