That was intended as a case of... not inclined to go look up the
details of emacs, and not following the status of emacs.
This as I'm no longer in the mainline "where's emacs?" and the many
other related "where's $whatever?" paths...
emacs 21.3 download:

21.2, and building 21.2:

It'd be interesting to see how OpenVMS x86-64 will fare with its newer
compilers, and with a recent GNV, and with any discussions of SSIO and
fork aside.
vim and Xcode and LSEDIT, here. And yes, sometimes using Xcode for
OpenVMS source code, where I can manage that. pico for some projects.
