   Edwin 1.5c   (EDWIN15C.ZIP) is another Wordstar / Borland IDE
style editor which supports macros and multiple windows. According to
the documentation, it's public domain, although there's a request for
$10 to cover costs if you aks the author for support and / or the
latest version.

   Qedit seems to be smaller / faster / more powerful, and it has
a gee-whiz user interface with popup / pulldown menus and such, but
its registration fee is $45+.

   btw  Edwin 1.5c is quite old. Does anyone know whether the author
is still at Turbo Power Software. I'm inclined to send him $10 as a
token of appreciation for his efforts.
