We are looking for an editor to run under HPUX on our HP9000 mini
(more or less to replace vi in mailx and such). So why do I post to
comp.sys.ibm.pc?

Because it would be nice if our users could use the same editor on
their pc's under DOS. Thus emacs are out (too big for some of our
users). We don't need all the functionality of vi and we don't
really need a wordprocessor. I was hoping for something like brief
(perhaps even brief). But it has to look (more or less) the same
under both unix on the mini (run on a, say, vt100 terminal emulator
via kermit) and the pc

Any suggestions would be appreciated. We are willing to pay for a
good product but suggestions about pd stuff would also be
appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Neal Beck
