It's shareware package, 48k in size, handles files up to memory, windows, and the display is the fastest I have ever seen (and I have a 4.77mhz machine too, though I work on a 386 at times). It is eminently reconfigurable, good docs, and real small. I can relate to the need for a small editor; we XT types with our pokey processors and 80ms drives appreciate dense code like nobody else, excepting people who still use floppies.
