百度另外提一句，这个记录是2009年的了……　　3、PaganiR　　时间：6:　　现在已经进入榜单的前三名，不难看出超跑的造型也愈发的浮夸~就比如这位ZondaR，就算是不懂汽车的从外观上也能感受到隐藏在车壳之下的那股洪荒之力：这台车搭载了来自AMG的自然进气引擎，在7500rpm时可输出750马力，最大扭矩可达到710N·m，百公里加速仅需要秒，最高车速可以超过350km/h。

Gosling Emacs (often shortened to "Gosmacs" or "gmacs") is a discontinued Emacs implementation written in 1981 by James Gosling in C.^[1]

Gosling initially allowed Gosling Emacs to be redistributed with no formal restrictions, as required by the "Emacs commune" since the 1970s,^[2] only asking for a letter acknowledging his authorship.^[3] Later, wishing to move on and after a failed search for people who would maintain it under the same rights, he finally sold his version of Emacs to UniPress because they agreed to sell it under reasonable terms. The dispute between Richard Stallman and UniPress inspired the creation of the first formal license for Emacs, which later became the GPL, as Congress had introduced copyright for software in 1980.^[4]

Features

Gosling Emacs was especially noteworthy because of the effective redisplay code,^[5] which used a dynamic programming technique to solve the classical string-to-string correction problem. The algorithm was quite sophisticated; that section of the source was headed by a skull-and-crossbones in ASCII art,^[6] warning any would-be improver that even if they thought they understood how the display code worked, they probably did not.^[7]

Distribution

Since Gosling had permitted its unrestricted redistribution, Richard Stallman used some Gosling Emacs code in the initial version of GNU Emacs.^[8]^[9] Among other things, he rewrote part of the Gosling code headed by the skull-and-crossbones comment and made it "...shorter, faster, clearer and more extensible."^[7]

In 1983 UniPress began selling Gosling Emacs on Unix for $395 and on VMS for $2,500, marketing it as "EMACS–multi-window text editor (Gosling version)".^[10]

Controversially, UniPress asked Stallman to stop distributing his version of Emacs for Unix.^[11] UniPress never took legal action against Stallman or his nascent Free Software Foundation,^{[citation needed]} believing "hobbyists and academics could never produce an Emacs that could compete" with their product.^{[citation needed]} All Gosling Emacs code was removed from GNU Emacs by version 16.56 (July 1985),^[12] with the possible exception of a few particularly involved sections of the display code.^{[citation needed]} The latest versions of GNU Emacs (since August 2004) do not feature the skull-and-crossbones warning.^{[citation needed]}

Extension language

Its extension language, Mocklisp, has a syntax that appears similar to Lisp, but Mocklisp does not have lists, only strings and arrays. The Mocklisp interpreter, built by Gosling and a collaborator, was replaced by a full Lisp interpreter in GNU Emacs.^[11]
