Oh yeah, it wouldn't be much fun if there wasn't any porting to do :)
https://github.com/stangelandcl/ersatz-emacs/ wasn't too hard to get
running, but it's a shame it doesn't recognize the enter key, I guess
I will need to dig into some termcap stuff!

If I get it or some other Emacs working properly, would the goal be
for it to go into elks.git/elkscmd, or is there a wiki page or
something I could add it to?

This is the first time anyone has ever given me a reason to think that
vi is superior to Emacs in some way, not that I want to start one of
those wars :)

Thanks!
