Not bad, in today's world, for sure.  I've got a much older version,
MicroEMACS 3.8b, and I'm sure it's a lot smaller.  :)  This is probably
only a 16 bit system, too.  :)

No problem.  I've liked this well enough for the years I've been using
it, just enough features to be helpful and not so much bells and
whistles as to make it complicated or bloated...
