I think in the case of Guardian, this would be no port but a major
rewrite. 

But if you just don't like TEDIT (like everybody knowing Emacs) use
Gnu Emacs on your UNIX box and ftp the files. This was easy with the
Emacs version 18 and ftp.el. With Emacs 19 the problem is that
ange-ftp does not support Tandem's Guardian yet. But of course you can
do the work for Guardian!

A better solution would be if Tandem would support NFS. But it seems that
there is not enough pressure from the Tandem User Group and the users. I
tried to get their NFS prototype for years, but without sucess. But
maybe everything is getting easier with the new UNIX personality.

My first try with it would be to compile the Gnu tools. This would be
a good test for their openness ;-)
