It is fast, stable and very complete. I program in Pascal and Lisp, and find little difficulty in modifying the editor for these functions. I strongly recommend that you throw away your copies of McSink, send Pete his $22, and start using Alpha. If only the people at Symantec would install hooks to external text editors from THINK Pascal. I hate their editor and its barely flexible formatting! I have talked to them several times about this, and each time, they act as though they'd never heard the complaint before. This is strange, as every THINK Pascal programmer I know personally has expressed the same irritation. Cheers, Eric. __________________________________________________________________ | (801) 581-3592 | | Snail: Eric Kofoid; Dept.
