I used to use Emacs in one VC on my Linux box and tadsr in another.  Of
course, you could always use two buffers in Emacs and run a shell in one,
running tadsr.  but Linux is down right now because I got a new disk, went
for OS/2, and haven't urebuilt Linux.  In this case, I'll probably run the
OS/2 editor in one PM window, and TADS in a DOS window (nobody has, as far
as I know, yet compiled it as a 32-bit OS/2 application...if I ever get gcc
installed I may volunteer) and do it that way.
