What is XEmacs?

XEmacs is a highly customizable open source text editor and application development system. It is protected under the GNU Public License and related to other versions of Emacs, in particular GNU Emacs. Its emphasis is on modern graphical user interface support and an open software development model, similar to Linux. XEmacs has an active development community numbering in the hundreds, and runs on Windows 95 and NT, Linux and nearly every other version of Unix in existence. Support for XEmacs has been supplied by Sun Microsystems, University of Illinois, Lucid, ETL/Electrotechnical Laboratory, Amdahl Corporation, BeOpen, and others, as well as the unpaid time of a great number of individual developers.

Web and FTP hosting graciously provided by Sourceforge and tux.org as well as many world-wide FTP site and Web site mirrors.

Website Mirrors

As a common saying goes: Objects in mirror are closer than they appear.

XEmacs Website Mirrors exist on following continents. Pick the continent where your internet service provider resides, which is not always the continent you may sit on. This is most likely to matter when you work for an international company with no local internet connection.

Current XEmacs Package Releases

See the Quickstart Package Guide for information about the XEmacs package system. It is a feature differentiating XEmacs from GNU Emacs by allowing us to deploy bug fixes and enhancements of our lisp packages on a separate, usually faster, schedule than core XEmacs releases.
