Warren's emacs would have been part of the Bell Labs 'exptools'
(experimental tools) package, which was an internally distributed
package of 3rd party software that wasn't part of the standard UNIX
distributions at the time. vi/termcap/termlib was also part of exptools.
If exptools isn't preserved anywhere, it would be worthwhile to try to
find it. Noel - it's possible that's what you have. I can't find it
anywhere else easily.

Is Warren Montgomery's emacs available,
like, anywhere...
I've got a copy on the dump of the MIT PWB system. I'm actually supposed to
resurrect it for someone, IIRC, (the MIT system was .. idiosyncratic, so it'll
take a bit of tweaking), but haven't gotten to it yet.
Does anyone else have the source, or is mine the only one left?
