Re: [Freedos-user] "File too large for this version of edit" -- alternatives?

[Eric A. <eric@CoLi.Uni-SB.DE>]

Hi :-)

Check our LSM list:

www.freedos.org/cgi-bin/lsm.cgi?mode=dir&dir=edit

Blocek, Emacs, Fed, OS+ Editor, TDE, SETEdit, VIM, Edlin...

I believe 32bit versions of Blocek, Vim, Emacs, Edlin do
support files above 64 kB. TDE and SETEdit definitely do,
but maybe are a bit big to install. TDE also has a bit of
an odd menu system if you have a non-US keyboard. Please
try and report which editors you like and which not :-).

Classic FreeDOS EDIT supports max 64 kB per file but you
can edit several files at the same time with it... :-).

Cheers, Eric
