Subject: [PATCH] Format fix 1996/rcm/README.md

I feel positively awful but I also felt I had to add a link to the emacs
tarball that was referenced in the README.md file. No matter how much it
goes against my DNA it felt like it should be at least linked to since
it was part of the author's testing procedure. Call me crazy but I just
prefer not having CTS, I already have a good OS and I'd like a good
editor too. :-)
