I acquired from SUMEX through a friend the "freeware" text editor called FILE, in .dl (tohex) format. It is very useful for general editing as opposed to word-processing. It even can be used to make MacTalk documents. Since it was not generally available to Usenet readers unless they could FTP from SUMEX, and has no distribution restrictions, I have posted it and an associated help document to net.sources. I have tested it only very briefly (downloaded, ran fromhex on it, fired it up and did a bit of editing), but there seems no reason to believe that it does not work as advertised. Try it! Thanks to John W Peterson for making the program available. -- Martin Taylor {allegra,linus,ihnp4,uw-beaver,floyd,ubc-vision}!utzoo!dciem!mmt
