[about what text editor to use on a laptop with little diskspace]

My own hacked-up version of microEMACS, called GNOME (Generally
Not the Original Micro Emacs) is based on the original and was
intentionally kept lean and mean.  I does word wrap, although
it is mostly a programming, etc editor.  The executable is
about 55K, although about 8K can be cut out by compiling it
without the built-in help.  I use it on UNIX too: its portability
is its greatest feature!  On MS-DOS (with 640K RAM) it will
edit up to about 350K of C source code (many short lines) and
possibly even more English text.
