NOTES ON MICRO-EMACS 3.11a-beta3 (Apr 6 1992)/(Apr 7 1992):
==========================
* (C)Copyright 1988,1989,1990,1991 by Daniel M. Lawrence
* MicroEMACS 3.11 can be copied and distributed freely for any
* non-commercial purposes. MicroEMACS 3.11 can only be incorporated
* into commercial software with the permission of the current author.

NOTES ON THE VERSIONS FOR THE ATARI ST/TT
Many changes were done by Bjarne Pohlers <srb110@math.uni-muenster.de>. These
versions are beta-test-versions. They *must* be distributed freely and
with all files in this archive.
Please watch out for newer versions. Please report any unknown errors!
These beta-versions may be ftp-ed from ftp.uni-muenster.de (or
switek.uni-muenster.de).

Names changed! emacs.prg -> me.prg
gememacs.prg -> gemme.prg
Reason: emacs != MicroEMACS
me.prg: I am sorry, it is not `clean' programmed.
linea-calls are used. It is better not to try to change the
$sres-variable. Another `dirty'-programming-style: for input
evnt_multi-calls are used, for output Bconout-calls. I will not change
this, because there is now a GEM-based Version of MicroEMACS. Do not expect
me.prg to work under MultiTOS. Use tcme or gemme instead. These will work.
tcme.ttp is a version of MicroEMACS 3.11 which uses termcap. Of course,
no mouse-commands are possible. Make sure that the file /etc/termcap
exists and that the environment-variable TERM contains "atari" or "ST".
changes of tcme:
o The escape-sequences for cursor-keys sent by MiNT >V0.93 are now used.
o I changed the default-sequences for tcme (without MiNT) to a standart
vt52-terminal.
o tcme now interprets a SIGWINCH-signal correctly and therefore should
notice changes in its window-size. Please note that the values co and
li in /etc/termcap are still necessary for tcme to learn about the
maximal screen-size.
o Under MiNT output is buffered and therefore faster.
gemme.prg: see file readme.gem
gemme/me.prg were compiled with TURBO C, tcme with gcc and the MiNTlibs
Patchlevel 19.
some general features:
o MiNT-support
o new variable $osystem shows name and version of the current
operating-system
o r-flag of UNIXMODE is supported. /- and d-flags are always set.
o suspend-emacs works under MiNT and MTOS.
o shell-escapes work with shells that understand the `-c'
command-line-switch. (Make sure thet $SHELL is set.)
o files for `execute-file' are searched along the PATH-environment-variable
and additionally along the EMACSCMD-environment-variable. The current
lookup-order is:
if file contains path:
absolute
else
current directory
HOME environment directory
all directories along PATH environment
all directories along EMACSCMD environment
directories in table from EPATH.H
If you think that it should lookup all directories along
EMACSCMD environment before the PATH-environment, please let me know. I
think I will change this in a later release.
and much more...
changes:
o fixed the ALTERNATE-0-bug. Pressing A-0 (or A-ß or A-' on a German
Keyboard) no longer causes MicroEMACS to crash. (only me/gemme)
bugs: (will be fixed)
o The date will disappear in the status-line of a window.
o MiNT-terminal-mode is not yet set correct. This bug only occurs if ^S
is pressed as the first character after invoking MicroEMACS. (I know
how to fix this but I am too lasy...:-) )
