[Coco] Suggestions for a simple disk based text editor?

[spereira1952 at comcast.net]

Hi Willard, 

Thanks very much for the tip! 

I poked around a bit, and all I found was references to UltraEdit as a Windows application? Of course, I am looking for an editor that can run on the CoCo under HDBDOS with Drivewire. 

Are the .DSK file and manual available somewhere? I'd greatly appreciate a pointer. 

Thanks!

I heartily recommend Bob van der Poel's Ultra Edit. Now that he's PDed 
his stuff I can upload a .dsk somewhere but someone else has to scan 
the manual, I'm not set up to do that.
