- As promised, here is the summary of responses to my query for help with
- 8-bit clean simple editors. Since I already had pico, I tried the patch
- offered, and I have success. I will try out the others, so see if one
- of them is more appropriate, but now the urgency is gone since I have
- something which works.
-
- Thanks again people.

- Have you tried CE yet? its on crs.cl.msu.edu pub/ce1.2dist.tar.Z

- ELLE (ELLE Looks Like Emacs) can edit arbitrary binary files; I'm not
- positive what else you want in an ``8-bit-clean'' editor, but it should be
- easy to adjust ELLE to do it. ELLE is also very small and simple.

- The only patch that I have made on Sun is:
-
- *** os_unix.c.orig Fri Sep 11 20:16:37 1992
- --- os_unix.c Wed Nov 25 14:47:37 1992
- ***************
- *** 225,231 ****
- kill(getpid(), SIGHUP); /* the only honorable thing to do */
- }
- else
- ! return((Pmaster) ? c & 0xff : c & 0x7f);
- }
-
-
- --- 225,231 ----
- kill(getpid(), SIGHUP); /* the only honorable thing to do */
- }
- else
- ! return(c & 0xff);
- }
-
- The only thing I need to say to make it is 'stty pass8'.
- stty is the same as 'stty -parenb -isttrip cs8{'.
- This is with pico that comes with pine3.05.
