It would be great if we had emacs or some emacs clone as a editor on toucan and
roadrunner.  I know that many comcider emacs "bloated", so zile would be an
acceptable replacement.

This shows that zile is even more lightweight than vim, thus dismissing the
"bloat" argument

I don't see a problem of using the emacs clone. Anyone have objections?

Installed on toucan and roadrunner. Let me know how it goes and I may announce
this to -core so other devs know about it.
