Does anyone know if there is software available that can utilise the 512K of the CoCo3. At present I am using TSEDIT, which is only good for about 45K. Any help would be appreciated.

At present I am using TSEDIT, which is only good for about 45K. Dynastar will edit files of any size up to available disk space. However, it does not keep more than about 30K in memory at one time. Furthermore, you can with a few keystrokes load a bufferful of the file starting at the current cursor position (call it point A). However, once you have done so you must close the document and re-open to edit anything before point A. Aside from this quirk dynastar is a pretty nice word processor. -John Teague --

Window Writer, although it has some annoying bugs (at least in the last version I have.... they have gone up a couple since then) uses a RAM drive to effectively extend your memory to several hundred K (or around 700 with the 1 Meg upgrade installed).
