Note the word "simple". :-) Whilst I don't use xemacs myself (nor emacs,
for that matter - I don't really like the resources it uses), I recognise
it has its place... but, as Gary said, "simple", "syntax highlighting",
and "quite configurable" are pretty much mutually exclusive. You can't
have the former without the latter, although I believe several reasonably
small editors have syntax highlighting.

jed, perhaps? joe? I dunno.. :)
