Its called 'Z' and does everything 'vi' does, except that it does not come bundled with 'ex' as 'vi' does. This means you don't get to do 'ed' like commands by typing ":". I originally thought this might be a serious limitation, but since I also have 'ed' for the PC (from the Lattice 'C' people) I don't mind. The only "clincher" regarding 'Z' is that it has a file size limit of around 56k, regardless of how much memory you have (guess they felt they needed to stay within the bounds of the SMALL memory model). I have been using 'Z' on my PC for about 3 months now, and have not found any bugs in it. Gene Yurek AT&T Bell Laboratories Holmdel, N.J. 07733 EMAIL: ihnp4!houxm!ejy
