[comp.text.desktop] WYSIWYG Editors In UNIX

rkpc@mergvax (Rob Kedoin) (07/14/89)

With all this talk about Graphical User Interfaces lately, I was wondering
what kind of WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) text editors are
available for UNIX systems.

If anyone knows of such systems, please e-mail your evaluations of the
products to me and I will post a summary if there is enough interest.

Thanks in advance,

Hey, since you said text editor, not word processor? then I guess
vi is a WYSIWYG text editor as long as you're working on a display
how size is => than the vi window size and wrapmargin is set appropriately,
etc.  Gosh, and so cheap, too! ;-)
