I have a TextEdit substitute that's nearly finished. It's limits are as follows:
- supports only crOnly,
- text length within 2MB and lines fewer than 2,000,000,
- memory based (not so bad with VM) and
- single font and style.
It supports tabs and hopefully the Script Manager.

I'm willing to share this code with you, but I do not know when I get it
finished (you know, the last 10% constitute 90% of the time), maybe not until
next August :-( . There are so many other projects that wait for my time...
