I am editing, compiling (dcc from Dignus), assembling (dasm from Dignus) on the PC. I was using SF/SE from CTC, but it had some annoying crashes that couldn't they fixed (something to do with "CHANGE ALL" making multiple changes on the same line). Their response was "Works for me!", so on to the next editor. I am now evaluating SlickEdit with ISPF emulation. It has its own set of quirks, but at least it only crashed once. I like its built-in "BUILD" window from which I can run my GnuMake line command. I dislike the way it wants to change directories everytime I open a file in a different folder. There is checkbox to disable that behavior, but it is not sticky. UltraEdit is de-installed due to lack of ISPF emulation (no doc for it, no menus for it, but someone somewhere claimed that it supported ISPF emulation). Difficult user-interface or poor documentation means I click the uninstall button. Jeffrey D.
