Box 678 Natick, MA 01760 617-653-2555 This program is a godsend for anyone who has to use both unix and msdos and hates to switch editors back and forth. Special versions for 80186/ 80286/80386 are included. A CTAGS program and a splitter program for breaking up large text files are also included. I highly recommend the package. -- Steven C.

I agree, except that I recommend purchasing the MKS Toolkit from Mortice Kern Systems, Inc. 43 Bridgeport Road East Waterloo, Ontario Canada N2J 2J4 519-884-2251 which contains not only vi, but a Korn-ish shell (did I really write that?!), awk, sed, cpio, dd and much, much more. Price is in the US$140 range. I wouldn't be without the MKS stuff on a PC. And their license is like Borland: use it on only one machine at a time and you've complied with the license. And the documentation is superb! For example, I use the MKS man pages to learn how to use awk and sed more efficently on our BSD Unix system at work! On a scale of 1 to 10 I give MKS a 9. They only lose 1 point because I can't figure out how to send things to the printer without invoking command.com - and staying there while the printer finishes. (And that may be MY "rtfm" problem.) keith (in no way associated with MKS, Inc.) ericson
