I have given up on finding even an EXPENSIVE word processor for this purpose!
The only one that looked like it had any potential was either Appleworks
or Word Perfect - and those are way to much overhead (cost, startup, etc.)
for my interests.

Here is whta I have done - there are two programs that have been posted
to comp.binaries.apple2/apple2-l which break up a file into pieces.  Since
I am using ECP8, I break the files into 4 pieces, edit the last piece, then
append the pieces together!  Sigh - all I want is a virtual memory line
editor - I dont NEED full screen, etc.  I would LIKE to have it - but I
am willing to just have all of ed's power and a virtual memory arrangement
so that not even 32k lines or 1024+ character lines are a problem.

Anyone finish porting mg , micro emacs, stevie to the Apple II?
