Sure. I have not rejected any. TED won't open files 1 meg in size, so
I skipped over it for the moment. GbText needs richtx32.ocx and I got
a bad install file for Emojic, but I'm planning on coming back and
adding them. If enough people have problems with one or view it as a
bad editor relatively I can remove it.
I've already seen newer versions than the ones I downloaded for a
couple of these. This made me think it might be best to link to the

A: Technically, the full version utilizes a RichEdit control whereas
LE (Light Edition) uses the older but speedier Edit control (as does
metapad 1.x). LE is somewhat quicker under NT when loading large files
but it does not have the following features: no file size limit on
Win9X, multiple undo/redo, show hyperlinks option, drag & drop text,
editinginsert/overwrite mode. It's up to you to decide which one you

I have no experience with either obviously <G>. I saw the GNU emacs
was a large program and deferred downloading.
I figure starting with the smaller (and simplier) programs will allow
us to get something together and up. If anyone has any experience with
GNU emacs or XEmacs and cares to fill in the info it will help
greatly. Otherwise it is on down the road somewhere...
Oh, wait, that won't work...

If you set the format of the cells to text instead of numeric, which it
will automatically do the moment it perceives a numeric type of
character, you should be able to show it.

Um, unless there is some particular reason why you are including this
program to the exclusion of other programs like it, maybe you ought to
include at least InfoMagic, which creates text files instead of that
weird six-window panel that Notesbrowser does.

It was either VDE or one of the TED iterations. I recall that it was even
under
10K ... but was restricted to the 65K file size limited by DOS. And, now
that
I think about it .. it did not do RTF files, of course. And, the blocking
style
was column-block ... any size rectangle could be cut out of the text, and
left
spaces (Chr$20) behind. But the great thing was, it would reformat any
paragraph to fit your line length, removing old carriage return and
inserting
new ones where needed. When saved, that text file could be viewed in
any other editor or wordpro with the new line lengths.

That's one of the many things I don't like about Emacs. My editor of
choice must be able to fit on a floppy disk along with a bootable copy
of Linux or *BSD, and still have room left over for plenty of
utilities.
This is such a mess that I don't s swear I have this right, but I
think the difference between the two editors is that XEmacs started
out as either a fork or a duplicate of Emacs by a group of people who
disagreed on Emacs' policies and design issues. Most such project
forks eventually merge back into the original project. However, the
XEmacs developers weren't careful to get certain legal documents from
all their contributors to transfer the copyrights to the Free Software
Foundation, which makes it risky for Emacs to copy code from XEmacs.
So, XEmacs can borrow code from Emacs but not vice versa which really
leaves the Emacs crowd bitter. Mention XEmacs in the Emacs group and
you'll get flame-broiled.
In use, the two editors are about 98% identical. The real difference
is in the 2% or so of features that each group has added according to
their needs and philosophies. Sorry, but having discarded both editors
several years ago I can't begin to remember what those are.
Another editor you might want to add to your (If you don't have it
already) list is Micro-Emacs (sometimes called uemacs and now called
"JASSPA Emacs" under a new development group). It's a lean, mean,
shrunk-down version of Emacs without all the bloated junk. I probably
would have adopted it as my primary editor but the then-current
version kept crashing on my *BSD systems. That was 2 years ago so
maybe they have the bugs worked out by now.
Here's the homepage: http://www.jasspa.com/
JASSPA Emacs runs on a gazillion platforms - Linux, FreeBSD, Unix,
Irix, AIX, HPUX, SunOS, NeXTstep, and even DOS and Windows.
I tried both just long enough to know that I don't like either one
out-of-the-box. VIM took a lot of work to customize but I'm happy with
it now. I could have customized (X)Emacs to do about the same things
but it would have taken a whole lot more learning. VIM's authors seem
to have thought of everything so about all you have to do is tweak
some settings and maybe change some keycodes. With (X)Emacs you have
to learn quite a bit of lisp to accomplish the same things.
Oh, in that case why not just use the real Gates?
And Ballmer, too.

Susan figured it out, enter '- to display -
The sheet looked good enough, but when converted to html it lost the

We can add that in later, we're getting the crude part done.
Both sounds good.
