A stable Beta relese of the VIM5 editor has been released.

VIM is the most common editor shipped with Linux.  VIM is probably on
99% of all UNIX installations.

VIM5 is a much improved version.  VIM5 supports syntax highlighting for
just about every language you can think of, and has a rich command
language which makes heavy use of regex regular expressions, so is easy
to learn.

Best of all, it's free!

The VIM sources compile *right-outta-the-box* with DJGPP.

VIM5s(beta) source:

VIM5s DJGPP pre-compiled binary (for wimps):

ENJOY!
