I wanted to let you know about some work that I have been doing to port XEmacs to run on MacOS. Currently, I have XEmacs (version 19.14) working on MacOS 8.5.1. (In fact, I am composing this using XEmacs on my Macintosh 8500.) Currently, my port uses console-tty and VT100 emulation and is quite SLOW. My port is based on the work of Marc Parmet who ported GNU Emacs 18.59 to Macintosh. XEmacs gives me 28 bits for addresses compared with 26 bits for GNU Emacs. Those extra two bits make XEmacs run smoothly on a Macintosh with 256 MB of RAM; the GNU Emacs that I have been using must take heroic measures to run on a machine with more than 64 MB. I have sub-processes working and can use the `dired', `grep', and `diff' commands. The first item on my agenda is to improve perfromance; however, it is gratifying to see XEmacs running on my Macintosh desktop. At this point, I cannot dump an initialized XEmacs (I must loadup all of the lisp initialization files every time I launch XEmacs.) I believe that XEmacs and GNU Emacs are sufficiently different that the unexec code found in the existing GNU (18.59) implementation will be of limited value to me. If you could give me some help and/or guidance about what I should do to dump an initialized XEmacs, I would be greatly appreciative.
