Finseth&#8221; &lt;fin@finseth.com&gt;) about the various implementations of Emacs. Since I have been collecting (and building) a few ones myself that were not published elsewhere, here they come:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A slightly modified\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/ZIP\/EMAXORIG.ZIP\">MicroEmacs<\/a>\u00a0(coming from Dave\u00a0G.\u00a0Conroy and modified by Christian Jullien in 1987).<\/li>\n<li>I used it as a basis for some time to have my own YR-Emacs (up to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/ZIP\/EMAX130A.ZIP\">v1.30a<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li>What appears to be a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/ZIP\/UEMACS312a.ZIP\">MicroEmacs v3.12a<\/a>\u00a0(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/ZIP\/Uemacs312.zip\">original v3.12<\/a>\u00a0from Daniel Lawrence, but slightly modified by me in a pitiful attempt to extend it for my own use).<\/li>\n<li>Ed Davis addition in 2018: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/ZIP\/uemacs2.zip\">A very old (14 Dec 85) version of MicroEmacs<\/a>, and a minimally updated version, to get it to compile on Windows 7 and Linux.\n<ul>\n<li>readme.txt\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0&#8211; this file.<\/li>\n<li>uemacs.message &#8211; 14 Dec 85 21:31:29 GMT message posted to net.sources, with uemacs v2.0 source.<\/li>\n<li>updated.zip\u00a0 \u00a0 &#8211; updates of the same, to get it to compile on Windows 7 and Linux.<\/li>\n<li>changes.txt\u00a0 \u00a0 &#8211; changes from original to whats in updated.zip<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I am not sure that this is more than history. It looks like nobody would be using these versions today, but I don&#8217;t want to let this go. I am mainly assuming that some source code historian would find this useful in 2050 (if this web site survived until then, and the word Emacs still has a meaning).<\/p>\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">2020-02-13 UPDATE:<\/span> modified all inks to make sure that they are HTTP<strong>S<\/strong>, in order to avoid compatibility issues with modern web browsers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few versions of this text editor (sometimes) loved by many software programmers \/ Archive of old Emacs versions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14426,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15,3],"tags":[2361,2360,337,2381,2358,2362,531,2359],"class_list":["post-14424","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-legal-downloads","category-software","tag-daniel-lawrence","tag-dave-conroy","tag-download","tag-ed-davis","tag-emacs","tag-faq","tag-free-download","tag-microemacs"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/news\/en\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14424","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/news\/en\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/news\/en\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/news\/en\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/news\/en\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14424"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/news\/en\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14424\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/news\/en\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14426"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/news\/en\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14424"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/news\/en\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14424"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.roumazeilles.net\/news\/en\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14424"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
