  MicroGnuEmacs
  
     <text, tool> (mg) A Public Domain Emacs-style editor
     modified from MicroEmacs to be more compatible with GNU
     Emacs.  mg is essentially free, it is not associated with the
     GNU project, and does not have the GNU copyright restrictions.
     It is a small, fast, portable editor for people who can't run
     real Emacs thing for one reason or another.  It has few if any
     of the MicroEmacs features that were incompatible with GNU
     Emacs and adds missing features that seemed essential.
  
     MicroGnuEmacs is derived from, and aims to replace, v30 of
     MicroEmacs, the latest version from the original MicroEmacs
     author Dave Conroy.  The chief contributors were Mike Meyer
     <mwm@ucbopal.berkeley.edu>, Mic Kaczmarczik
     <mic@ngp.utexas.edu>, Bob Larson, and Dave Brower
     <rtech!daveb@sun.com>.
  
     mg version 1a of 1986-11-16 works with 4.2BSD, 4.3BSD,
     Ultrix-32, OS9/68k, VMS, Amiga, System V, Eunice.
     It is included in base OpenBSD. It should also support
