	Several others I've found I like. Emac3.11 has a really nice Gem
interface, making learning emacs a lot easier. 
	7up is a good editor that allows previewing of page layout, and one
of the best double sided printing setups I've seen. Also it has an
interesting "block calculator" that lets you mark a block and calculate
totals, averages, and several other things I haven't figured out yet.
Also, this same block marking allows you do block copy partical pages
vertically, so you can cut a column from one page, and paste it beside a
column on another.
	QeD is a nice editor that runs as a program or accessory. It has a
grep-like search routine which also works on disk, and the files found
are put in a .prj file, so you can load several files after finding an
expression in them.
