Certainly it's more full-featured than textedit. Actually, on our Sun's (several models) we get pretty mouse integration by using the unsupported oldXMenu. The installation advises against this, but I couldn't resist. We've been using it for the last year and never had any major problems. The oldXMenu gives you mouse driven cut and paste, and menu for switching buffers (the most useful) and another set of cute stacked menus for help. Not great, but useful. W.
