Yeah.  Well at least this isn't as lossey as others I've seen still in use.

Exact same situation here.  However I did download and compile Jasspa's
MicroEmacs and noticed they have an internal ftp client that could come in
useful for offlining to Janis' BBS.  Definetly some potential there
especially for pure text based offline packets.  The choices for split
screens looks really interesting.  For the record I am using
jasspa-mesrc-20091011 compiled on a pure 64 bit system, and with macros
etc. it comes in at around 6M soaking wet.  Not too shabby. Offhand without
checking it seems to me vim is around +30M.  I think I may have found a new
editor but I'll have to play more before committing. Looks good.  Thanks
for the heads up.

Heh, heh.  I doubt reading the article would have enhanced the mental image
'boob backlash' created.

Life is good,
Maurice
