I've had to start using Windows NT at work (groan) and I'm on the lookout
for a good editor. Does anybody know of a Windows version of VI. I wouldn't
mind one that had a few menus (FileOpen dialog would be nice). But it should
have the real command line of VI so I can get some real editing done. :-)

I could use a DOS VI in a DOS box, but it would be nice to have things like
window re-sizing that only come with a Windows window (or xterm under Unix).
I'm sure good things could be done with VI under Windows.

Cheers.
