GOSMACS

/gozmaks/ , n. [contraction of Gosling EMACS ] The first EMACS -in-C
implementation, predating but now largely eclipsed by GNUMACS. Originally
freeware; a commercial version was modestly popular as UniPress EMACS during
the 1980s. The author, James Gosling, went on to invent NeWS and the
programming language Java; the latter earned him demigod status.
