There is an ST VI editor called STEVIE.  It's latest version (I think)
is 3.44.  I have TRIED to use it, but it constantly crashes on me.  The
cursor control is the culprit.  I run a BBS, and I have tried to use
this to edit text files.  I always end up rebooting after it crashes and
using WordPerfect instead.

If anybody knows of any other VI editors that DON'T crash, please let me
know!
