Thank you. You've just described CygnusEd Professional, which I use due to
working for ASDG. We use it exclusively in-house, and do considerable Amiga-
TeX work with it. Please don't construe this as a commercial post. I feel it's
the best text editor for the Amiga and I use it exclusively.

All of these things are supported by CygnusEd Professional, and more. All
functions can be accessed from menus, keyboard, or the ARexx port.
