Highly portable Emacs style editor based on MicroEMACS

Changed: 10c10

An Emacs editor biased towards UNIX users, working across platforms by providing a consistent interface under UNIX, Microsoft Windows '95/'98/NT and DOS operating systems. It is free software (GPL). It uses a subset of full emacs command set. It can emulate the keybindings from Microemacs, GNU Emacs, and even Windows CUA keybindings. Is's much enhanced version of the Daniel Lawrence's original MicroEmacs 3.8 of 1988. It is stressed that although Daniel Lawrence's 3.8 version was used as a base, he has had no involvement in the development of this distribution. To avoid any confusion with the original MicroEmacs, this distribution should be referred to as the JASSPA distribution.
