   Does anyone know where I can get GNUemacs with EDT emulation
   to run on a 4D system?  I could do the port, but someone else
   probably already has.

   Thanks for the info.

The latest distribution of gnu emacs (18.51) comes with Iris 4D
support, as well as EDT emulation.  (See below for info on getting
this software for free).

Beware that m-iris4d.h has one extremely nasty bug - the last line
should be: 

#define XUNMARK(a) ((a) = (((unsigned)(a) << INTBITS-GCTYPEBITS-VALBITS) >> INTBITS-GCTYPEBITS-VALBITS))

instead of

#define XUNMARK(a) ((a) = (((a) << INTBITS-GCTYPEBITS-VALBITS) >> INTBITS-GCTYPEBITS-VALBITS))

If you have Internet access, you can copy the latest Emacs
distribution from host prep.ai.mit.edu.  There are several ways to do
this; see the file `FTP' in the same directory as this file for more
information.  Even better, get the latest version of the file from
`/u2/emacs/etc/FTP' on prep.ai.mit.edu for the most current
arrangements.  It may also be possible to copy Emacs via uucp; the
file `FTP' contains information on that too.
