Well, for openers, try pressing Alt-1 through Alt-0 to drop bookmarks, or
even attempt to execute the command "bookmark 1" to drop a bookmark and
then sit back and watch the fireworks. Also, notice how the colours are
always getting mixed up etc etc etc.
CRISP is very damned good as an editor, especially if you are used to
BRIEF, which is probably the finest editor I have seen todate under DOS,
but it (CRISP) could do with some bug-fixes and improvements.
Foxy also mentions some new macro language which as far as I know has
never seen the light of day, *AND* it won't work under Xenix/286 :-(
Are those good enough reasons for a new version ? :-)
