Nobody has emacs running on an Alpha on HECnet?? I ve been trying for a day now to build the emacs21_2 that s on the FREEWARE v8 CD. It s a joke I don t think it ever worked on VMS. The MMS files don t work with MMS anymore you must use MMK. There s some elisp file called p4 missing don t know what that s for. The termcap doesn t contain ANY vtxxx terminals (talk about a major bummer!). The image is linked with /TRACEBACK and therefore can t be installed privileged (which is exactly what their setup script does). I persevered and fixed all those, but now emacs crashes with an ACCVIO whenever I try to read a file. That s gonna limit its usefulness as a text editor J I really don t want to debug this thing. Please!

Does anybody have a ready to run copy of emacs for the Alpha and OVMS 8.3 that I could copy? Building it can be a struggle that I d rather skip right now. FWIW, I need the plain old fashioned terminal, NOT DECwindows, version. Thanks, Bob
