- Hi,
-
- I've been pondering the options in buying a home computer, to
- complement the facilities I have available at work. At work I use sun
- workstations, running X, with my principal workhorse being epoch.
- Instead of replicating these facilities at home I was considering
- buying a Mac LC to complement them. However, I was hoping to be able
- to port gnu emacs to the Mac until I uncovered the notice about FSF
- boycotting Apple 'cos of their `look and feel' copyrights.
-
- So my question is, do the FSF still advocate a boycott of Apple, and
- if not has anyone ported gnu emacs to the Mac?
-
- Thanks
-
- Murray
