The Zia Link
Welcome to ZE (Zia Editor);
ZE is a general purpose text editor for programmers.
It supports a mouse and EGA or VGA. Lower resolution
monitors are also supported MGA, CGA (no snow elimination).
If you do not want spaces condensed to tabs write the
file out with a 'W' on the command line. For now the colors
cannot be changed.
Up to 16 files may be edited at once.
Start the editor by 'ze [optional filename]'.
If you do not supply a name a directory list will
be display.
The help file must either be in the current directory or
accessable thru the environment variable 'ZIAEDIT'. For
example:
set ZIAEXIT=c:\helpfiles
This will allow you to have only one copy of the program.
To search use 's /string to find/' on the command line.
Any delimiter besides '/' may be used.
For all those interested in detail you can grab the file marker
on the right side of the screen with the mouse.
Someday there may be a new version in C++ (Zortech).
This version is running under MS C 5.1.
Be sure to press the Help button F1 to get an idea of the
function key definitions.

Bugs:
Once in a great while the program will think it is on the command line
when it really isn't. Just press the escape key once.
If the last line of a file is not terminated with a carriage return,
it will not be displayed. This is a really not a bug but a question
of whether all lines in a text file should have termination characters.
My gut feel of this matter is when in question look to UNIX. All text
lines in UNIX have terminators.
