I have nothing against THE, it is a nice little editor.  THE is a small
subset of XEDIT.  XEDIT has a large number of commands some of which are
not implimented by THE (one example the prefix commands!).  KEDIT is a
truly wonderful superset of XEDIT!  I just recently got version 5 of the
editor and I consider it one of the best editors I have ever used.  Like
XEDIT, it is completely extensible via its REXX interface ( KEX also! ).

I am a VM expert and must have the prefix commands.  I don't know how any
XEDIT user could get along with out them!  KEDIT is a complete implimentation
of XEDIT and a lot more!
