Acknowledgements Eat's name self-explainary, it stands for "Emulate A Terminal". Eat is a terminal emulator. It can run most (if not all) full-screen terminal programs, including Emacs. It is pretty fast, more than three times faster than Term, despite being implemented entirely in Emacs Lisp. So fast that you can comfortably run Emacs inside Eat, or even use your Emacs as a terminal multiplexer. ## Recent NEWS: Eat NEWS -- History of user-visible changes Copyright (C) 2022 Akib Azmain Turja.
