- .short
- User-friendly, powerfull text editor
- .description
- PolyEd is one of the most user friendly text editors for the Amiga.
- It is kept small and easy, but has all the features.
-
- PolyEd has all features, needed to edit texts, but no other features,
- like clocks, memory displays, calculators ...
-
- As the Amiga has a great multitasking operating system, it is, in my
- opinion unnecessary to put all those things into one single program,
- but better to set up one's desired environment by some different
- programs (which can be further improved by arexx).
-
- In other words, if you need a calculator, parallel to PolyEd, why not
- run the one from the 'utilities' drawer or one from the public domain
- pool.
-
- Via the arexx-port, centering, formating and functions you can think
- of, can be added to PolyEd too.
