    The best we've found is Epsilon, from Lugaru Software (412) 421-5911.

    The biggest disadvantage is that your emacs extension code won't work
because Epsilon's extension language isn't Lisp, it's C.

    Strangely enough, the biggest advantage is that your emacs extension
code won't work because Epsilon's extension language isn't Lisp, it's C. 

    It's the best programmer's editor I've ever used, and I wish to h*ll it
was available on UNIX generally. (It is available for xenix and microport).
