Z:gnu-www-ja-stallman-kth--d80577-While I was thinking about wha/en

While I was thinking about what to do about these problems and wondering whether I should try to fix them or write entirely new compiler, in a roundabout fashion I began working on GNU Emacs. GNU Emacs is the main distributed portion of the GNU system. It's an extensible text editor a lot like the original emacs which I developed ten years ago, except that this one uses actual LISP as its extension language. The editor itself is implemented in C, as is the LISP interpreter, so the LISP interpreter is completely portable, and you don't need a LISP system external to the editor. The editor contains its own LISP system, and all of the editing commands are written in LISP so that they can provide you with examples to look at for how to write your own editing commands, and things to start with, so you can change them into the editing commands that you really want.
