Emacs has been run on both Berkeley Unix and System V Unix, on a

computers, though with some deficiencies that reflect problems in
these operating systems. See the file `MACHINES' in this directory

I will probably fix anything that I consider a malfunction. I may
make improvements that are suggested, but I may choose not to.
