By "decent" I mean anything that is not vi or emacs or versions thereof! > I just spent a couple of days porting CRISP (Rev 1.9) to an IBM RT and an IBM RISC System/6000. It is supposed to be similar to the MS-DOS editor BRIEF (but I cannot confirm or deny this because I'm unfamiliar with anything to do with MS-DOS). The half dozen people that I work with were all 'vi' fanatics (me included) and in the last couple of days, we've all been spoiled using this new editor. Its available on UUNET, but I don't have the exact e-mail address with me right now. >George C.
