I've heard about Stevie, but I have no idea where you can get it from.

If you can afford a commercial version, try Mortice Kern Systems, 35
King St. North, Waterloo, Ontario, CANADA N2J 2W9, uunet!mks!inquiry,
519-884-2251.  Their MKS Toolkit (awk, ksh, vi, and more than a hundred
other reimplementations of UNIX(R) system tools) is $249.  MKS VI alone
is $149.  Site licenses and quantity discounts are available (as are
re-implementations of lex, yacc, make, and some "revision control
system", and OS/2 versions of all of the above).

This software is also available via Programmer's Connection (a mail
order firm), 7249 Whipple Avenue NW, North Canton, Ohio, USA  44720,
800-336-1166 (voice, USA), 800-225-1166 (voice, Canada), 216-494-3781
(voice, everywhere else), 216-494-5260 (FAX).  They charge $219 for the
Toolkit, and $125 for vi.

I'm not speaking for the company, I'm just speaking my mind.
My only relation with MKS is one of a satisfied customer.
