JOVE, (Joshua's own version of Emacs) is available for the PC.  It is public
domain, and a almost totaly complete version of it's mainframe counter part.
JOVE can be found on several main frames, and offers some very nice features.
I preffer it to Emacs.  There was also a program for CP/m several years ago 
that might be available for the PC.   It was Uince (I think).   I remember 
something about it later becoming Perfect Writer, but I am not sure.
