1) Take a look at home: SETEdit (from v2apps) doesn't have problems with file
names, doesn't eat your CPU, can be configured to use tabs and to *see* the
tabs, is limited only to the DPMI memory provided by Windows (much more than
64Kb ;-)
2) It supports windows clipboard, what do you mean with "W95 close requests"?
3) As a djgpp program have some special advantages when used to call external
programs of the djgpp suite.
4) You have sources, something not so common in the DOS/Windows world.
