There is a GEM-based desk assessory editor called STEDT (?) from Canada.
It has a nice GEM interface (even pull-down menus attached to the
window).  There is a demo version going around with save disabled.
However, if you use the clipboard feature (this is the only ST
program so far I know which supports the standard GEM clipboard) you
can paste all your text to disk in the file "scrap.txt". It is a very
nice editor.
