Who knows? But hopefully it'd be cross platform.
I'd use it if it were "good enough" --- lol.
Again, who knows? But my guess is there would be some incompatibility. Perhaps a "converter" could be provided.
In anycase, I dont like emacs because I find it hard to use, or at least to unfamiliar to make it worth my time to learn. So you can take my comments for what they are worth...

Dogs are sensitive creatures, so sensitive they may be excreting in line with the Earth's magnetic field. Thank you, science

That's why they turn in circles before dropping. They are getting aligned.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Now you have me picturing them doing a little radar pingy-sweepy thing as they circle.

The company stops allowing developers to submit new applications or updates for the mobile operating systems. Predictable enough, I guess

Global spending on technology will rise 6.2% to $2.22 trillion in 2014, helped by an improving economy and growing interest in areas such as mobility and cloud computing, according to new data from Forrester Research. "I never think of the future - it comes soon enough."

According to the latest numbers from Net Applications, Microsoft’s Internet Explorer IE11 tripled its market share from last month. IE11 grew 7.15 percentage points, up from 3.27 percent to 10.42 percent. This sudden growth is due to the automatic update process for IE10 users. IE10 is down 6.45 percentage points to 11.05 percent. You're getting a new browser, and you're getting a new browser!

I just noticed that the IE 11 About dialog has an "Install new versions automatically" checkbox -- pre-checked of course. Now unchecked.

With Jon DeVaan and Grant George officially retired and most of rest of Windows 8 team out to pasture, Microsoft silently acknowledges complete lack of faith in Windows 8. "Exit, pursued by a bear."

"And there was much rejoicing."
Microsoft needs to get back to its roots; stealing developers who wrote robust and usable operating systems -- as they did for NT.

Microsoft needs to get back to its roots; stealing developers who wrote robust and usable operating systems -- as they did for NT. Absolutely! Back to when devs ran the company, as opposed to legal and marketeers.

Definitely starting to look that way (e.g. them vs. Samsung)

History shows that no matter who gets the nod, some of the commentariat will cry foul. Sometimes, the easiest predictions are the most accurate

When New York City hosted The World’s Fair in 1964, Isaac Asimov, the prolific sci-fi author and professor of biochemistry at Boston University, took the opportunity to wonder what the world would look like 50 years hence — assuming the world survived the nuclear threats of the Cold War.

Wow, Stunningly close.

Most of his predictions were absolutely wrong:
Kitchen units will be devised that will prepare ‘automeals,’
Wrong (Sorry, TV dinners don't count, they were available in 1964.)
heating water and converting it to coffee
Wrong (Alchemy? WTF?)
Breakfasts will be ‘ordered’ the night before to be ready by a specified hour the next morning.
Wrong
electroluminescent panels will be in common use.
Wrong
The appliances of 2014 will have no electric cords
Wrong (Note: some battery-powered appliances are available, but it's neither common nor reliable.)
long-lived batteries running on radioisotopes.
Wrong -- no such thing, and Thank GOD! WTF was he thinking? Why would anyone want radioactive batteries???
ground travel will increasingly take to the air a foot or two off the ground.
Wrong (Except in Star Wars!)
[V]ehicles with ‘Robot-brains’
Wrong (yeah, yeah, Google is working on it, but it's not here unless it's in my garage and your garage)
[W]all screens will have replaced the ordinary set;
Wrong (Sorry, LCD screens don't count until they're built-in to the home and cover the entire wall)
but transparent cubes will be making their appearance in which three-dimensional viewing will be possible.
Wrong (So-called, 3D LCD screens notwithstanding.)
And later he warns that if the population growth continues unchecked, “All earth will be a single choked Manhattan by A.D. 2450 and society will collapse long before that!”
No way to know now, but probably wrong as well.
“Ordinary agriculture will keep up with great difficulty
Wrong (Individual and coporate farms are doing quite well thank you very much.)
and there will be ‘farms’ turning to the more efficient micro-organisms.
Wrong (LMFAO!)
Processed yeast and algae products will be available in a variety of flavors.”
Wrong (Thank GOD! WHO TF wants to eat algae?!!!??)
The world of A.D. 2014 will have few routine jobs that cannot be done better by some machine
Wrong (Maybe in another 100 years... LMAO)
Mankind will therefore have become largely a race of machine tenders.
Wrong
Schools will have to be oriented in this direction….
Wrong
All the high-school students will be taught the fundamentals of computer technology
Wrong
will become proficient in binary arithmetic
Wrong
and will be trained to perfection in the use of the computer languages
Wrong
[M]ankind will suffer badly from the disease of boredom,
Wrong
psychiatry will be far and away the most important medical specialty in 2014.”
Wrong
[T]he most glorious single word in the vocabulary will have become work!”
Wrong
in our ”a society of enforced leisure.”
