- Besides being a plug for the ailing Aus economy, you really should have a
- look at Ed for Windows. It has been very well reviewed in a number of mags.
- I have been using it for a whole week :-) and it has all the bells and whistles

- languages including of course C/C++ 7.0. Certainly worth a look. If you want
- more to keep your wallet replenishing boss happy then pls e-mail.

- needed, as is promised by its author. Had an Archie for EW100.ZIP as mentioned
- by another respondent and got a nil return?
