There are several text editors that run in OS/2 protected mode.  I use
BRIEF, so I am unable to comment one way or the other about competing
products.  BRIEF 3.0 is a good, stable editor.  Recommended.  BRIEF 3.1
is buggy.  In my opinion, they added more bugs than features.  BRIEF 3.11
supposedly fixes the bugs, but it didn't fix mine.  Tech Support has
promised me a call this coming Monday to tackle these problems.  It took
two months for Tech Support to even acknowledge my existence, however, and
only after I made a call to Sales to complain.

Note that BRIEF 3.0 was produced by UnderWare.  Solution Systems already
had purchased the rights to the DOS version of BRIEF, and then they also
picked up the OS/2 version, so BRIEF 3.1 is a Solution Systems product.
I believe that explains the deterioration in product quality.

I don't know if BRIEF 3.0 is available anymore, and if it is, where to
get it.  Maybe some software house has old stock sitting in storage.
