I use to be on emacs-pretesters but dropped off when I lost my job.

Does anyone have emacs 22 compiled for AIX?

If not, I'm happy to do that.  Should I use the cvs version or a tar  
ball?

Thanks,

With CVS you can have every day some work ...

It takes longer to download, but it makes more sense (GNU Emacs has  
cvs built-in). The sources (C and Elisp and others) change quite  
often, because it's still a developing software. So updating and re- 
compiling and re-testing/using every few days makes sense.


There is also a version 23 available, based on Unicode. The Xft  
branch was integrated into it in summer (offering font anti- 
aliasing), and recently it learned to use fontsets to become able to  
display less characters as empty boxes.

For both versions a transparency patch is available that can make GNU  
Emacs transparent in X11 – if the X server (I think starting with  
X11R6.8) allows this!

Please use the tarball.  We need to test whether the tarball builds on
different systems.  The hope is to release pretest tarballs on a
fairly regular basis, so they shouldn't lag CVS by much.
