I've been using the emacs19.19 package on my laptop (which only has 8M ram)
Running under X it's ok running gcc OR emacs but for one to run, the other
has to get kicked out. I dont use emacs for one tenth of what it can do,
especially this new one. Could someone suggest an alternate editor with
emacs key bindings without all the bells and whistles that is known to 
build under FreeBSD-1.0R?

Thanks very much in advance,
gps
