mg (portable Micro Emacs clone)

Mg is a Micro Emacs clone created in 1987, based on the original
MicroEMACS v30 released by Dave Conroy in 1985. The name, "Micro
GNU Emacs", was disputed early on by the FSF, so today it simply
goes by mg. This software is fully free and in the public domain.

The intention is to be a small, fast, and portable Emacs-like
editor for users who cannot, or do not want to, run the real
Emacs for one reason or another. Compatibility with GNU Emacs is
key for Mg, separating it from other ErsatzEmacs clones, because
there should never be any reason to learn more than one Emacs
flavor.
