GoldED 2.2.0 A VERY nice shareware text editor
The basic design goals of this editor were to make it as user friendly as
possible. And make it as fast as possible. A lot of attention has been put to
the general look & feel, performance considerations and full support of the
Amiga OS. The whole design is based on OS2.x/3.x, a fast CPU, sufficient RAM
and a hard disk. The makers of GoldED neither cared much about memory
consumption nor did they pay attention to OS1.3 compatibility since this
would have meant to make concessions to speed or general handling.
