[comp.sys.amiga] Editors

	Can anyone out there direct me to an editor which either
	looks like EDT, or can be customized to behave like EDT?

	(Yes, I am still one of those VMS gurus who believes
	 EDT is the god of editors...:-)

	I once had a set of macros for Matt Dillon's DME which came
close to EDT. It wasn't close enough for me, however, because DME
doesn't do block select, cut, and paste quite right for EDT. (A humble
suggestion to Matt Dillon: How about block select on character
boundaries?)

	I've got a totally hacked version of MicroGnuEmacs which now
supports an EDT-like keypad; only problem is, I've only
implemented a Unix V5.3 version. Certainly an Amiga port is possible,
but since I've gotten used to Cygnus ED on the Amiga, I'm not terribly
motivated to port it.

I heard rumor of an EDT emulator written for Uedit.  If it doesn't exist
already, Uedit would be my editor of choice to create such an emulator,
anyway.
