Hello Jim--
Thanks for the great info on various text editors.
What are the fundamental difference between Amaya, HoTMetaL Pro, and
GNU emacs? Are there Macintosh versions of these?
Are you familiar with BBedit for the Macintosh? How would you say
this text editor compares to the above?
I *way* prefer a powerful text editor over a WYSIWYG. And I'm always
on the lookout for the perfect editor. BBedit comes pretty darn
close. <g>
TIA,
Leslie
