Thanks for the reply about Kermit. Unless somebody offers me a version
that runs without the ACTION! cartridge I guess I will give the
one in the archives a try.

With regards to SpeedScript 3.0, did you know that OmniWriter (which
works with and is provided free of charge with OMNIVIEW) is a much
superior derivative of that program? It works 80 columns of course and
has the normal cursor movements that you would expect. I use it as my
normal program text editor. Lots of people use it as their ACTION!
editor. I am continually improving the program and in fact you have
given me the idea for my next enhancement: I will provide a command for
saving an image of the program (along with the currently selected
options like insert/overstrike) to disk. Eventually when the program
stabilizes I will probably make the source available to the net.

If you still want to fool with SpeedScript you could get the book
published by Compute that would tell you all you need to know.
