IBM ships vi (of course) and INed from interactive with AIX. But what other editors are available for AIX? EMACS (sp?) has been mentioned. Where is it available with support? I have downloaded the GNU emacs and am starting to compile it, but the manuals are written in TeX and I do not have it available. What we are looking for are commercial products that would run out of the box for AIX and have documentation and support. Most of our users are also IBM MVS mainframe users are are used to using ISPF. A lot of our PC users use the product SPF/PC. Is there a SPF beast for AIX (unix?) P.S. I know that editors are a religious subject, so no flames about SPF, just the facts please. THanks Markw -- Mark Whetzel My comments are my own, not my company's.
