Yep.  Each line for a given file has the same width, but the width
can vary from file to file in the ring.  The kicker is that the
width of each line is determined at run time.

If you'd like a copy of mine, send me mail.  It's in four modules:

  TextEd.Mod        editor kernel, device independent
  TextIO.Mod        simple line-oriented I/O
  EditIO.Mod        full screen I/O
  Cursor.Mod        PC BIOS dependent cursor shape routines

It's about the tenth Modula-2 program I've ever written.  It's BIG:
around 3000 lines total (I'm not really sure why).  The functions
should be general enough to be ported to almost any sort of editor.
