Nitpick. Emacsen refer to an editor in the Emacs family. It wasn't always the case that Emacs was equated with GNU Emacs.
- Koshkin 9y agoActually, 'emacsen' is the German plural for 'emacs', not the Scandinavian (?) for 'an emacs'.
- _acme 9y agoWhat language is "Scandinavian"? Also, perhaps the intention was that "Emacsen" was the literal name of a version of the emacs family of editors, of which GNU Emacs is only one (XEmacs, for example, being another one).
