"Emacs", unqualified, can be ambiguous. It can mean either (i) "an
editor of the Emacs persuasion"; or (ii) "the best editor in the world,
maintained by the GNU project". In contexts where it is important to
emphasise that (ii) is meant, surely "GNU Emacs" is what to write.
That is true, but if you want to write "GNU Emacs", then write "GNU XEmacs".
Every way of contrasting these two versions of GNU Emacs is partly
inaccurate. Using "GNU Emacs" and "XEmacs", the inaccuracy is at the
expense of the GNU Project, and I don't want that. So please use a
different way, with a different inaccuracy.
