You're talking about the suntools program "textedit"?

I know little about textedit since I've not had to run suntools much in
the last couple of years, but "ez" from the Andrew suite is a point/clicky,
rich-texty, emacsy editor that you might want to try.  The Andrew distribution
is on tape-4 of x11r4, and 6 patches are available from expo or
emsworth.andrew.cmu.edu (that might be emsworth.itc.cmu.edu).
