I have a small problem.  I currently own AE Mousetalk (1.5) and sometimes 
have problems editing lengthy comp.binaries.apple2 files (500+ lines).  The
editor is only 36K and so I cannot load some of the files into memory to 
modify them (case in point.  David Whitney goofed on  his Zlink post and needed
the last line to be changed. Not easy because it was a 600 line post).  I don't
mind exiting mousetalk but  I don't even have any ProDos Word processors that
will do the trick.  I have FreeWriter but it is bound by about 30K also.  I have
Appleworks but that tends to severly mangle any executioner files (it puts a 
space in every line of text around character 60 when the margins are srt back 
to 0 inches on either side.)

    Are there any inexpensively priced word processors that will do the trick.
I can transfer my files to DOS 3.3 and use Applewriter II if necessary but it
is not my program and so I hesitate in using it).  I know ProTerm has a 44K
editor but I don't really want to shell out another $120 just for an editor.
Any recommendations?
 
Thanks
