Ocassionally I have a file that's a little too big for Ed and I'll use Vim (TSEdit patched for 80col), which has a slightly larger buffer, but less features.

I would like to run it in a 80x24 text window and it needs to be able to handle text files that could grow as large as 100k or more.  It would primarily be used for asm or C programming.  Anyone have any suggestions?Dave-- Coco mailing listCoco at maltedmedia.comhttps://pairlist5.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/coco
