Byron,

A version of JOVE for the PC does exist, here's the information on where
to get it using anonymous ftp:

At simtel20.arpa in the directory:    PD1:<MSDOS.EDITOR>

Filename     Description                                    Size   Date
===========  ============================================== ====== ======
J414DOC.ARC  Doc for JOVE (Jonathan's Own Version of Emacs) 118665 891108
J414EXE.ARC  JOVE, alternative version of Emacs text editor 141108 891108
J414SRC.ARC  Source code in C for MSDOS JOVE text editor    351831 891108

Don't forget, if you use simtel20.arpa itself instead of one of the mirror
sites, you must issue the command "type tenex" instead of "type binary"
before beginning the download.

Hope this helps,
Dave
