Almost everything about >PC-Write is configurable if you try. I was a die-hard PC-Write (registered) fan for years. Most of my work with editors however has been source code. So I began using MicroEMACS and have been extremely happy with it. The major problem I had with PC-Write was that I couldn't figure out how to get it to enter tabs into text rather than multiple spaces. The latter really slows you down on editing and adds about 30% to the size of an average C source file. -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------- + Steve Manes Roxy Recorders, Inc.
