The price for version 2 is actually $50, half the price of version 1. It
does everything listed above, and is FAST. You can get it direct
from IBM, like I did. Write to:
IBM Personally Developed Software
P.O. Box 3266
Wallingford, CT 06494-3280
and ask for their catalog, called "The Directory.", and their special
info sheet on PE2.
I am not in any way affiliated with IBM. Just a satisfied user of PE
for the last 4 years.
Actually, I now use MicroEMACS instead of PE, but mainly because I've
got it running on 7 different machines, so I don't have to retrain
my fingers every time I switch computers.
