[comp.os.minix] VI, large files?

flong@sdsu.UUCP (Fred J. E. Long) (02/19/89)

Is there an editor for minix which handles arbitrarily large files yet?
I've been fiddling with my own cheap vi implementation, but right now
it keeps the whole file in memory.

Yes, stevie as recently posted handles very large files with only the
bookeeping in core.

Tho, I speak only for the Atari ST.
