Yes, last I looked at it long ago, it took unjustifiably much to make things work with both #Xemacs and GNU #Emacs.

Slime's predecessor?

@hairylarry
Despite that old computer challenge week, I didn't figure out what the idiom was. But the modes are different and incompatible to gnu emacs modes, so slime and eev are not going to work.

There is a release sumo tarball of modes distributed with xemacs. Iirc some of the modes seem to be about sending lisp expressions to a shell, but I didn't manage to get deep into it. #xemacs #useage #mastoquestions

I decided to write text file daily weblogs for the rest of this OCC week since my computer is already an old computer.

I just say things I think are true about @jwz as my #oldComputerChallenge topic and I have switched to xemacs as promised.

Very cool pat! I used xemacs as my main emacs for a while in 2018 I think but it was definitely brain-stretching to remember now.
