Grab the XView sources - a version comes with the X11R4 source, but
there's a newer version on "expo" - and bring it up.  It comes with
source for a text editor called "textedit" that has the same
capabilities as "textedit" does.... :-)  (Modulo the XView one being Open
Look and the SunView one not being Open Look, of course.)
