If such a port exists, I'd certainly be interested in learning about it too ... That said, I'm currently using Win-Emacs with Allegro under NT 4.0, and stability (of WIn-Emacs) is not a big problem. Intuitively, I'd agree on the outdated part, since GNU Emacs is more standard and seems to be more up-to-date, but what does this really boil down to? That is what can you do in GNU EMacs that you can't do in Win-Emacs? If there are convincing points, it might be easier to talk people into helping with a port of ACLW Editi from Win-Emacs to GNU Emacs.
