jasspa (enhanced microemacs text editor)

Jasspa's MicroEmacs is an Emacs editor biased towards UNIX users,
working across platforms by providing a consistent interface under
UNIX, Microsoft Windows 3.1/'95/'98/NT/2K/XP and DOS operating systems.
It features syntax highlighling, folding, multiple undo/redo, macro
languge, organizer, mailer, calendar, multiple frames and windows and
much more See it's internal help for full list of features.

Jasspa is a descendant of the original microemacs, with a lot of
additions.

About the slackbuild script:
  - The official way to build jasspa is to use the script named 'build'
    from the source distribution which autodetects a few things, so I use
    this script, but if I use this script I have to patch linux2.gmk
    and linux26.gmk.

  - there is a special version called nanoemacs (ne) which is a small
    macro-less minimal version, only useful for extremly minimal
    installations, so I do not provide a build variant for it, because I
    think it is not so useful.

  - Note, that while the package contains an updated macros collection
    from 2009.10.17, the version is 091011. This is intentional, the
    macros collection contains some minor fixes, but according to
    http://www.jasspa.com/downsrc.html: "The official baseline for 2009
    is 2009.10.11 ...", so the VERSION is 091011.
