I'm not sure if this is the correct newsgroup to ask... but I'm looking for a fairly easy-to-use editor that is capable of working with 600+ column files. I am editing large data files on my 386-based PC running DOS version 4.01 and I need an editor that will make this task a little easier. Any suggestions? Dana Edberg dte@equinox.unr.edu

Qedit is a PD editor that is easy to use and handles > 80 column widths. I don't know about 600, though. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark R.

I use Norton Editor version 1.3b (1986) to edit lines up to 64K in length. Actually it is something like 65534 chars in length.
