Actually, the one that comes to my mind is, if that's what you want, why xemacs? Why not stock emacs? Or any of a number of small emacs-like editors? I prefer mg, but I'm the author of that particular version of microemacs. BTW, it looks like what's really going on is that it's testing for enriched-text to see if xemacs-packages has been loaded or not, as the only things that list it in their plist appear to be emacs fof various versions. If someone tries building it without those, I'd be interested in the results. http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
