Here in France, such a tool is included into "quickmind" accessory, an acc
written (i believe) by Dominique Laurent, author of Turbodos. 

Quickmind includes several features:
	- file manager, ram disk, print spooler, keyboard edit, file viewer
	- agenda
	- calculator (texas or HP)
	- address directory
	- a game (hanoi towers)
	- and a notepad, consisting of a mini-wordprocessing, 1st word 
	compatible, 12 pages long. You can save/import/print these pages.

It is a commercial product, sold by a french company named MIND SOFT.
(I do not know if they still exist!)

Hope this help. (but look also at gnome.acc, an emacs-like D.A.)
