Heh, 'vi' may be hard to use and without handy djgpp-like features, but I
think that I can maybe go one better... ;-)

Am I the only person who uses MS-DOS Edit?

I think I've tried every editor on Simtel and quite a few more (maybe about
100 or so!) and *not one* is as good as DOS Edit. (Although its replacement
of tabs by 4 spaces is very annoying.) If my choice offends anyone then tell
me a better editor and I'll use it!
