- Another option would be to get a copy of THE (The Hessling Editor) which
- I have written. It is based on Xedit/Kedit and runs on DOS, OS/2, SunOS
- and can be ported to most *nix's. The source is distributed under the
- GNU copyleft licence.
-
- Version 1.0 (first public release) is available from:
-
- accord.dciem.dnd.ca in /pub/curses/the
-
- It is also available on your favourite SIMTEL-20 mirror in the DOS editor
- directory.

- Cheers, Mark
