[comp.sys.amiga] VI!, Last Chapter

ejkst@cisunx.UUCP (Eric J. Kennedy) (01/20/88)

I am sorry to have to pull another switch on everybody, but...It seems
that the UseNet policy against commercialism is going to prevent the
distribution of VI! and Uedit on comp.{sources,binaries}.amiga.

So, if you have been eagerly waiting for my vi emulator to drop into the
nearest VAX, I'm afraid it's going to be a bit more involved.  You now 
have three alternatives.  
    1.  Get it through the mail from me.  
    2.  Get it through the mail from Rick Stiles.
    3.  Continue typing 'jjjjlll' into TxEd, cursing periodically.

1.  Getting it through the mail from me:
Send a blank disk and SASE *or* $3 to cover costs to
    Eric Kennedy
    300 N. Dithridge, Apt 301
    Pittsburgh, PA  15213
    ph.  (412) 681-5064

I promise the turn-around will be fast.  (how long does it take to use
diskcopy?)

2.  Getting it through the mail from Rick:
Rick is a Shareware author, and, as such, is understandably not enthused
about receiving blank disks and SASE's.  Uedit costs $45, which gets you
the fully programmable version, (The version I'll send you is the
smaller, non-programmable version)  various configurations, including
mine, some miscellaneous utilities, and the full Uedit manual on disk.
I'm not going to extoll the virtues of Uedit here--I've already done 
that in a previous post, and it might be construed as more commerciallism.
Suffice it to say that I think it's worth it.  

If you want to skip a step and order directly from Rick now, send $45 to:
    Rick Stiles
    P.O. Box 666
    Washington, IN  47501

Remember, you will be registering as a Uedit user, not as a VI! user.  

3.  Continuing to use TxEd, cursing under your breath...
See 1. and 2.


Again, I am sorry for all the fuss this has turned in to.
