I'm looking for a public domain or shareware vi editor clone. I REALLY don't want to use two different editors (one at work and one at home), and I just can't seem to force myself to use emacs. Even STEVIE would be OK. Binary or source (Turbo C) is fine. I'll soon have ftp access again, so a pointer to an appropriate archive site would be wonderful. Thanks, Dan Cripe I work for Motorola, Inc. Motorola may or may not agree with my opinions. I may or may not agree with Motorola's opinions.

I've heard about Stevie, but I have no idea where you can get it from. If you can afford a commercial version, try Mortice Kern Systems, 35 King St. North, Waterloo, Ontario, CANADA N2J 2W9, uunet!mks!inquiry, 519-884-2251. Their MKS Toolkit (awk, ksh, vi, and more than a hundred other reimplementations of UNIX(R) system tools) is $249. MKS VI alone is $149. Site licenses and quantity discounts are available (as are re-implementations of lex, yacc, make, and some "revision control system", and OS/2 versions of all of the above). This software is also available via Programmer's Connection (a mail order firm), 7249 Whipple Avenue NW, North Canton, Ohio, USA 44720, 800-336-1166 (voice, USA), 800-225-1166 (voice, Canada), 216-494-3781 (voice, everywhere else), 216-494-5260 (FAX). They charge $219 for the Toolkit, and $125 for vi. Paul S. R.

My only relation with MKS is one of a satisfied customer.
