Another possibility: install DOS Oberon; there use ET. Off hand I
can't tell you the file size limit. In use have not encountered a limit.
Regarsds,
Seeing as how you've referred to "chapters", it sounds like you're making
contributions to a book or dissertation or script or some sort of larger
document. I'd be wary of using a text editor instead of a word processor --
they are two very different things.
A text editor is really designed
If you need IDE drives, I have stacks of them, (one of the things I was
able to rescue during our recent forced move). They're all different
sizes, but I'd be willing to send you a box of them for the cost of
shipping if you want them, since I no longer have any machines that can
use them,

It's a 486 dx 33, and I will have a look at that link when I get home,

I'm not sure if I still have it, but I used to have an ide hard drive caddy
buried somewhere. I might see if I can dig that out, as I have a few ide
drives lying around.

Hi John
Fun with someone using a real machine, I am using an IBM 100DX4 running,
Freedos, DrDos and DSL (Damn Small Linux) all on three compact flash
drives.
I would try File Wizard and its internal editor,
I am using edit at the moment,so it might be safer to stick with that. By
safer, I mean not installing windows, which also contains too many
distractions!

just fine.

Ooh, that's good to know. I'll have to check how many lines per chapter.
I'm also tempted to dig out another old drive, install windows 3.11 and try
Microsoft Office 4.3 as I've never used that before.
