- STEVI69X.ZIP STEVIE v3.69b vi clone MSDOS Executables, docs
-
- Ain't exactly 3.69a tho .. had to do minor tweaks to reduce/remove
- Turbo C v2.0 error and warning messages. Also enabled BIOS (instead of
- NANSI) screen I/O and HELP (for ":help" inline help .. nice!).
-
- Seems to run just fine on my PC-DOS v3.1 XT clone system, editing
- nice BIG files (several hundred KB), etc.
