It was inspired by the original Emacs, but that's all. I would never have agreed to use a language like Mocklisp. Gosling originally asked the user community to improve Gosmacs. In an early manual, he said he hoped other people would improve it so that it became worth of the name "Emacs". But then he made it proprietary.
