I have been using Preditor since it first came out, and it's been my favorite text/programming editor so far. I highly recommend it if you need an editor such as this. Plus, it's fairly inexpensive (I believe it's still around $65), and also has a built in macro language that is pretty powerful. ||+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++|| || Blayne Puklich nopuklic@Plains.NoDak.EDU "I think I'm going || || NDSU Student ACM nopuklic@ndsuvax.BITNET bald..." || || Vice-Chairperson NU087763@NDSUVM1.BITNET -- Rush, from Caress || || North Dakota State University, Fargo, ND of Steel, 1975 || || (701) 237-4408 || || "Corvettes are the best thing man has ever invented." || ||-------------------------------------------------------------------------||
