From: brownc@utah-cs (Eric C. Brown) Well, we use Final Word from Mark of the Unicorn for most of our editing jobs; it can handle up to 240Kbyte files and up to sixteen files can be loaded at one time. The default commands are fairly worthless, but the commands can be altered at will to include any commands, so we have it modified (about an hour's effort) to include a substantial subset of EMACS. Also, the terminal interface can be reprogrammed, so we have it set up to bypass the normal DOS interface commands and talk directly to the monitor entry point, so updates run blazingly fast. The price is reasonable, $300 for the editor and a Scribe-like formatter that supports a wide variety of printers. Hope this helps, Eric C. Brown. brownc@utah-cs ..!harpo!utah-cs!brownc
