[comp.sys.amiga] Editor for terminals

prakt@hpbbm.HP.COM (#Praktikant) (01/12/90)

Hi everybody !
I have connected a terminal (HP2628A) to my A500.
With the command 'newshell aux:' I can work on the
terminal like in a new CLI window (very nice !!).
The terminal CRT is much better than my AMIGA CRT
so I'm looking for an editor which supports the 
terminal. Does anybody knows if there exists such
an editor ( maybe on puplic domain ) ?

There is Stevie, which is an Amiga port of VI.  This should do the
trick for you.  VI may sound hard, but once one gets used to it,
you can be very fast with it.

I believe Stevie is either PD or shareware.

(I know, everyone shoot me for mentioning VI :-)  Hey, I use it all the
time here on my usenet access.  And I'm not even a UNIX head ;-)
