Does anyone have any suggestions for a decent programmers editor?
EDLIN is the pits and I am not too fond of Wordstars user interface
either.  An editor with capabilities similar to EMACS or vi would be
nice.  I am looking for one that will run on ZDOS so if it uses IBMPC
direct screen control, it's no good to me.  I would like for it to be
able to handle large files gracefully.  Multi-file or multi-window
would also be nice but is not essential.  Of course, the cost must be
reasonable also, but isn't that always the case?

Many thanks,
Jim Knutson
