It is "broadly" +compatible with GNU Emacs, the latest creation of Richard M. +Stallman, Chief GNUisance and inventor of Emacs. GNU Emacs (and other +portions of GNU as they are released) are essentially free, (there are +handling charges for obtaining it) and so is Mg. You may never have +to learn another editor. (But probably will, at least long enough to +port Mg...) Mg was formerly named MicroGnuEmacs, the name change was +done at the request of Richard Stallman. + +Mg is not associated with the GNU project, and most of it does not +have the copyright restrictions present in GNU Emacs. (However, some +of the system dependent modules and the regular expression module do +have copyright notices. Look at the source code for exact +copyright restrictions.) The Mg authors individually may or may not +agree with the opinions expressed by Richard Stallman in "The GNU +Manifesto". + +This program is intended to be a small, fast, and portable editor for +people who can't (or don't want to) run real Emacs for one reason +or another. It is compatible with GNU because there shouldn't be +any reason to learn more than one Emacs flavor. + + +Beyond the work of Dave Conroy, author of the original public domain +v30, the current version contains the work of: + + blarson@ecla.usc.edu Bob Larson + mic@emx.utexas.edu Mic Kaczmarczik + mwm@violet.berkeley.edu Mike Meyer + sandra@cs.utah.edu Sandra Loosemore + mp1u+@andrew.cmu.edu Michael Portuesi + RCKG01M@CALSTATE.BITNET Stephen Walton + hakanson@mist.cs.orst.edu Marion Hakanson + +People who have worked on previous versions of Mg: + + rtech!daveb@sun.com Dave Brower + +Currently maintained in the OpenBSD src tree, with contributions from +many others. + +---------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Known limitations: + +Recursive bindings may cause help and key rebinding code to go into +an infinite loop, aborting with a stack overflow. + +Overwrite mode does not work in macros. (Characters are inserted +rather than overwriting.) + +Dired mode has some problems: Rename does not update the buffer. +Doing a dired again will update the buffer (whether it needs it or +not) and will lose any marks for deletion. .. and . are not +recognized as special cases. + +On systems with 16 bit integers, the kill buffer cannot exceed 32767 +bytes. + + + +New implementation oddities: + +insert and define-key are new commands corresponding to the mocklisp +functions in Gnu Emacs. (Mg does not have non-command functions.) +(Mg's insert will only insert one string.) + +The display wrap code does not work at all like that of GNU emacs. + + |
