[HECnet] OVMS AXP emacs?

[Bob Armstrong]

   Nobody has emacs running on an Alpha on HECnet??
  
   I   ve been trying for a day now to build the emacs21_2 that   s on the FREEWARE v8 CD.   It   s a joke     I don   t think it ever worked on VMS.   The MMS files don   t work with MMS anymore     you must use MMK.   There   s some elisp file called p4 missing     don   t know what that   s for.   The termcap doesn   t contain ANY vtxxx terminals (talk about a major bummer!).   The image is linked with /TRACEBACK and therefore can   t be installed privileged (which is exactly what their setup script does).
  
   I persevered and fixed all those, but now emacs crashes with an ACCVIO whenever I try to read a file.   That   s gonna limit its usefulness as a text editor J
  
   I really don   t want to debug this thing.     Please!
  
Thanks,
Bob

   Does anybody have a ready to run copy of emacs for the Alpha and OVMS 8.3 that I could copy?   Building it can be a struggle that I   d rather skip right now.
  
   FWIW, I need the plain old fashioned terminal, NOT DECwindows, version.
  
Thanks,
