Regarding SpeedEdit.  Now that we have had a chance to evaluate it we have
decided that it is a good editor for program development under Windows.  It
has many nice features, like the ability to set how you want to invoke the
compiler from inside the editor (we use ndmake - for its small size - as
opposed to Microsoft's nmake).  The keyboard is remappable BUT, you can not
use multiple keystroke sequences.  In other words forget making an EMACS
keyboard mapping because things like <CTRL>-X S are impossible.  This i
really the only complaint we have with SpeedEdit.  Very powerful, not buggy,
you can develop Windows apps and not have to leave Windows.

			Just a soon to be satisfied customer,
