 XEmacs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
It is a popular myth that XEmacs did not have proper support for text terminals (or emulators such as xterm).
XEmacs often directly integrates upstream code for independently maintained lisp packages, whereas the Emacs project performs testing on every package distributed with it.
Both programs are licensed under the GNU GPL (in fact, the copyright of much XEmacs code is owned by the Free Software Foundation), so code could in principle be freely exchanged between the two projects.

 Using XEmacs with Powerada
XEmacs should be fairly intuitive to use at a basic level.
XEmacs is really a lisp engine (a lisp variant called "elisp", or Emacs lisp); nearly every keystroke translates into a number of elisp calls.
If XEmacs is set as the editor, compilation errors are opened in XEmacs, along with a window containing the list of errors in the file.

 The RenderMan Academy - Xemacs and the rsl-mode
To get Xemacs to recognize and associate the file extension *.sl to the rsl-mode you need to specify it in the init.el, the.emacs, or the custom.el file.
Xemacs should go to rsl-mode and syntax highlighting should be enabled.
Xemacs is divided into two main regions, buffers and the mini-buffer.

 Introducing XEmacs
XEmacs will solve your text editor woes, because it wraps up all the power of emacs inside a comfortable graphical user interface with buttons and menus to give you access to the most common operations.
XEmacs recognizes many different kinds of files, and has specific menus, commands, and display settings for each kind of file that it recognizes.
Most importantly, XEmacs has the same ancient lineage as Linux itself, and the skills learned here, from shortcut keys to customization files, can be applied to Linux administration and any number of other software tasks.

 XEmacs: XEmacs vs. GNU Emacs   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
From XEmacs 20 on, the buffer is treated as an array of characters, and the representation of buffer text is not exposed to LISP.
XEmacs uses "extents" to represent all non-textual aspects of buffers; GNU Emacs 19 uses two distinct objects, "text properties" and "overlays", which divide up the functionality between them.
XEmacs uses the MIT "Xt" toolkit instead of raw Xlib calls, which makes it be a more well-behaved X citizen (and also improves portability).

The scroll bar on the right side of the Xemacs window can be used to move up and down in the file.
The files are brought into Xemacs and any differences in the two files are highlighted.
Xemacs has "major modes" for many languages such as C, C++, FORTRAN, Makefiles, Shells, Perl, Tcl/Tk, etc. Syntax highlighting can be used to provide a better visual picture of the code and comments.

 XEmacs tips -- Oleg's XEmacs customization page   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
I have found XEmacs to be the best text editor on UNIX.
The drawbacks are that the default XEmacs behavior is very unusual to a new user, and it takes a lot of time and knowledge to customize it.

 Scheme within XEmacs
The choice between using terminal or XEmacs as the environment in which to run Chez Scheme is a matter of personal preference and style; after today's lab, you may use whichever setup you find most comfortable.
Since XEmacs still wants to provide full-window editing, it does not transmit definitions and expressions to the Chez Scheme interactive interface when a line break is inserted (as for instance when the programmer presses the key that is just above the right-hand key, on the typewriter part of the HP keyboard.
Instead, XEmacs requires the programmer to signal explicitly that she has finished editing a definition or an expression and wants Chez Scheme to deal with it.

 Xemacs   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Xemacs is one of the more powerful text editors available for Linux.
While I don't recommend it for word processing (use something like Star Office for that), it is great for coding.
It is based off of the text editor emacs (how clever is that), except Xemacs has a graphical user interface which gives it the GUI feeling (not slick and sticky, feeling) that is familiar with Windows or Macintosh.

 XEmacs 19.14 announcement
Do not send messages about problems with XEmacs to the GNU Emacs newsgroups and mailing lists (help-gnu-emacs@prep.ai.mit.edu, bug-gnu-emacs@prep.ai.mit.edu, gnu.emacs.help, gnu.emacs.bug, et cetera) unless you are sure that the problem you are reporting is a problem with both versions of Emacs.
The GIF libraries are supplied with XEmacs; for JPEG and PNG, you have to obtain the appropriate libraries (this is well- documented).
