Just a couple of questions, not all of which have to do with djgpp.

1) I have installed DJGPP and have been using it for some time now.  I 
have noticed that even after installing the 4th patch, go32 still says 
that it is a maint 3.  What is up with that?

2) I haven't had a chance to test this one, but if I develop a program on 
my 486/33 and then mail it one of my friends as an exe file, but he 
doesn't have a math coprocessor 386/sx.  What will happen when he tries 
to run it.  What should I do to insure compatability?

3) What is the editor of choice for all you DJGPPers?  I currently use 
qedit, but I dont' really like it for programming.  I'd like something 
that highlights the differnt parts of command different colors.  There is 
a program Zeus for Windows that I've tried, but I don't like switching 
back and forth and besides, my mouse locks up sometimes when I shell to 
DOS.  I'd also like something that will run a compiler with a command to 
see if I've made any mistakes.

4) Which brings me to EMACS.  I've tried freemacs, and oemacs and I don't 
like either one.  OEMACS I thought would be nice, but the go32 version is 
old and it conflicts with my newer go32 and I can't always get OEMACS to 
run.  Is there a better emacs?

Thanks,

Wayne
