I'd recommend using JED (space.mit.edu:/pub/davis/jed/*); it has flexible
color syntax highlighting, a few emulations (Emacs, Brief, and EDT, but
not VI, although the latter probably wouldn't be too hard to write), a
powerful extension language, and DJGPP support (it's already a makefile
option, and JED can parse GCC messages).
