Microemacs for QNX6

I’m just moving from QNX4 to QNX6, but I’m feeling the lack of microemacs.
(I know their are other better editors, but I know how to use it and its
like a pair of comfortable shoes) I’ve had a trawl around but there doe snot
appear to be a QNX6 port. Now, I’m not up to speed enough with QNX6 to do
the port myself, so I was just wondering if there was anyone who has done it
/ is intending to do it / would like to do it (beg!)

Thanks

I don’t use emacs-type editors myself, but here is a quote from one of the
QNX iPAQ documentation pages:

Jed is a lightweight clone of Emacs with almost all of its features
including syntax highlighting, auto completion, remote shell commands
and tracking of compiler errors. Both editors support graphical
versions, xjed requires the XPhoton server packages to be installed.

So I don’t know - might such new shoes be easy to break in? Jed is not just
for the iPAQ, of course…

Isn’t emacs in 3d party CD?

I guess I saw the Cogent emacs port there.
