- a) Why not VI or Emacs? (never used brief/crisp)
-
- b) There was a decent editor writen in Tk called 'point' a while back,
- but it's probably not want you want unless you REALLY can't use
- emacs or vi; by the time you have Tk and tcl and point, it's major
- disk space. (Of course, you then have Tk and tcl, which can be
- very useful themselves...)
