I'm reasonably satisfied with MAE, which has as much power and speed (given the limitations of the disk) as I need. I also had lock-up problems with the scrolling program, and lost a lot of work before I realised that the problem is related to lines longer than one (40-column) screen-width. Now that I keep my source-lines under 40 characters (commenting the code is more difficult, but it is more readable on a 40-col screen) the problem has gone away. PS: have any MAE users out there made contact with the User's Group (ATUG)? I'm wondering whether they have any useful free software.
