With the recent discussion on comp.sys.ibm.pc on which editors will
handle files larger than memory, no one has discussed any of the
strategies used by these editors. Blackbeard's, Norton's, Sprint,
Multimate, Brief, and others were mentioned as editors which could do
this.
Could somebody enlighten me as to how this is accomplished in some of
these cases, or a general strategy for doing so for an editor? I have
not a lot of desire to reinvent the wheel, or reinvent it
inefficiently, so I would appreciate some info on the topic itself, or
on where I could find such info.
Followups to comp.sys.ibm.pc.programmer please.
Chris
