It gives the users of the proprietary system a taste of free software. To quote part of the Emacs manual: We support GNU Emacs on proprietary operating systems because we hope this taste of freedom will inspire users to escape from them. > For example if I am forced to run MS Office, then I would chose MacOS > because I can, via fink, macports and homebrew, I can run GNU software, > while that is a lot harder in MS Windows. MS Office, MS Windows and macOS are all proprietary software. The goal is to eradicate them, not to make it more convenient for people to use them. But my main concern is whether or not it works with Octave, which directly concerns me (as a user of Octave). It would certainly be disappointing if Emacs supported Matlab better than Octave, and it would also be harmful to the GNU project. > Ok, I really have to check that one, my guess is now, but I have to sort > it out. Please do that, thanks :)
