Daniel Weinreb Daniel L . Weinreb ( January 6 , 1959 – September 7 , 2012 ) was an American computer scientist and programmer , with significant work in the environment of the programming language Lisp . Early life .

EINE made use of the windowing system of the Lisp machine , and thus is the first Emacs written for a graphical user interface ( GUI ) . EINE was the second implementation of Emacs ever written , and the first implementation of Emacs in Lisp . Most of the notable subsequent Emacs implementations used Lisp , including Richard Stallmans GNU Emacs , James Goslings Gosmacs , and Bernard Greenbergs Multics Emacs . Professional life . During 1979–1980 , Weinreb worked at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory ( LLNL ) on the operating system Amber for the S-1 supercomputer , more so the file system and the multiprocess scheduler .
