I (also) bought a copy of the MIX editor for CP/M. I think that they have done a good job on this editor, excepting one slight lack which makes the product useless for me-- the editor does not know what to do with control characters in files that you edit. This includes such interesting characters as formfeeds and tabs. MIX will offer to convert LEADING tabs to spaces for you during editing, and back again when writing out the file, but to my way of thinking, this is not enough. If editing these control characters doesn't come up for you, MIX seems to be really good. I hope that they work on this problem so that I can use it, too. Mark Mallett decvax!sii!mem or ittvax!sii!mem
