In the discussion of text editors on ms-dos for large files, I haven't
yet seen mention of Epsilong (from Lugaru Software, 5740 Darlington Rd,
Pittsburgh, pa 15217 (412)421-5911).  It will edit files as big as I've
ever seen (over 500k) given space for swap file.  It's also an emacs
look-alike in command set, and is completely rebindable and programmable
(using a c-like rather than a lisp-like internal language).  It's also the
fastest ms-dos editor I've ever seen (considerably faster than Brief,
for example).  They also provide the source code for most of the commands,
which can lead to considerable fun if you want.
