[comp.editors] Outline processors on Unix.

daveb@geac.UUCP (David Collier-Brown) (04/15/88)

  Does anyone know of an outline processor which will run on Unix (a
Vax 8650, to be precise)?
  I miss being able to reorganize whole documents by moving index
entrys around, but I'm not too enthusiastic about using a Poisonous
Computer just to do occasional special-purpose editing...

Richard Stallman's brilliant gnu-emacs has outline editing built in.

  I'm writing one for nroff files which will use the .H lines as the
key items for the outline display. I have no idea if that would be useful
to anyone else, it won't be done until after summer vacation, and I'm not
sure what I'm going to do with it, other than use it myself.
