Hi,

Does anyone know a small text editor? To edit ansi files.

Coder

MorphED (http://mdc.morphos.net), BlacksED (aminet, don't forget to download the latest update pack too) or Memacs. CygnusED works too, but is commercial. :)

They are all not simple and not small, but easy to use. :)

Hi Tokai,

I am getting BlacksED. I have MorphED but I need something really small that will edit ansi files.

I can understand the ANSI part but what exactly is the benefit of "really small" on a Pegasos? "Really stable" or "really useful" make more sense to me as criteria, generally speaking. Since you are looking for an ANSI editor, what about AmisED?

Hi Dietmar,

What I actually ment is a program that does not take so much work to get installed, and is mb's big. Would be nice if something like that would come standard with MOS. Sometimes you want to edit the user-startup right after a fresh install and it would be nice if you could do it without installing a wordprocessor package.

You could also point it down to that I am just to lazy to do some work for it.

Weird logic ;) You install a program once. If that takes two minutes, so be it, it won't kill you. After that, you will be using the program on many occasions. And at that point it makes a major difference what program you have installed. Not how long it took to install it.

As to size, what's your point? For example, MorphED is 350 KB. That loads in a fraction of a second, before you can say "Jack Robinson", and and equals zero point something percent of 128 MB.

Ok, that makes sense as long as MorphOS does not have an Installer.
