Agreed. I myself use an old version of QEdit in a DOS box under
Win95. Never a problem. The old version is not available anywhere I
can find it, but an updated version of it is out there. Look for it on
the Semware site. I think there might even be an OS/2 native version of
it, for that matter. It's got all the old Wordstar key sequences
(which, for me, is great, since that's the first WP program I ever
used), and also has drop-down menus. A very good, solid, sturdy
product. And the newer version is very configurable, and supports
macros, as well.

Might have to go look for that one. Thanks for the pointer.
