Since several people have sent me mail asking where to get Epsilon
at a better price than the $195 direct from Lugaru price, I though
I'd post it.

The Programmer's Shop
(800) 421-8006

The price for (Dos) Epsilon 5.0 as of 4/17 is $109.  I am a very
happy Epsilon user, although I admit I haven't used GNU Emacs, or
Sage, and only briefly Brief.

Epsilon is fast, has undo and redo, handles multiple windows and
buffers, edits large files, has regular expression searching,
and many other features.  It indents C code the way I like it,
and its features are easy to extend with EEL (which although is
not an interpreter, can be all done without leaving Epsilon).

Epsilon is CUI, not GUI.  No mouse support.

I was frustrated with microEmacs when it couldn't edit its own
360Kb doc file - I routinely edit files > 5 Mb with Epsilon.

I'm not associated with Lugaru, but would be glad to answer any
questions about Epsilon - I initially purchased Epsilon after
Net advice.
