It did. (sort of). Borland ended up with ownership of Brief and put it into
most of it's IDEs. You can still do the "Brief" emulator editor mode in
Delphi, CBuilder, and JBuilder (sans the brief scripting). CodeWright, one
of the most powerful (IMHO) windows programmers editors (stand alone
editor), also supports Brief emulation quite well, plus it's fully
programmable. As you can probably tell, I'm a Brief fan from way back (1.0
all the way up to the end). I've still got every manual and every box stored
away in my closet. Can't seem to part with them ;-(. <HOME><HOME><HOME> I
find it easier now to standardize on the regular windows IDE (CUA?) keys
now.
(Epsilon was the "Windowized" vi editor that I recall everyone bragging
about way back. Oh, those were the days.)
