Not to knock the FINE commercial products out there, but there is a P/D implementation of uEMACS for the Rainbow that can be downloaded from Fido 109/483 (The Pot of Gold) at 703-359-6549. The commercial products are much better. Obviously, you gets what you pays for. However, you may want to try the P/D stuff and then spring for the commercial versions. I also have DED available on 109/483, as well as a lot of other good generic and Rainbow specific software.
