Hi,

  I'm just starting to program the Mac, and I'm using THINK C 4.0 as the
platform.  As a UNIX type, I've become accustomed to emacs, and lately to the
Andrew text editor (ez).  I miss things like the blinking parenthesis to
indicate which one you're closing off, context-sensitive indention, etc.  Ez
also provides the wonderful function of boldfacing function names and
italicizing comments.

  Has anybody seen a text editor that incorporates these features?  I've heard
that there are several implementations of Emacs for the Mac, but I've not seen
a "good" one yet.  Obviously, it must produce a text file, so that I can load
it into THINK C.

Thanks,
--Mike
