12 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa Intorduction
13 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa ^^^^^^^^^^^^
14 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa This is a list of some of the editors availible on the net.
16 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa This list is constantly updated. There will always be a updated
17 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa list on the VI/EX archives.
19 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa I've restricted the various Emacs implementations to GNU emacs and
20 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa microemacs, because of Craig Finseth's posting on emacs implementations.
22 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa Also, if I haven't listed an editor here that you want to find, then it
23 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa may be a good idea for you to look at the 'How to find sources' article
24 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa which is regularly posted to comp.sources.wanted, alt.sources and
25 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa news.answers.
26 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa And then when you find it, tell me about it. I would be exstremly happy
27 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa if you could submit the same information that the editors in this posting
30 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa I've tried to list at least ONE site in each part of the world (Europe,
31 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa North America, Australia and Asia).
34 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa Anonymous FTP
35 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
36 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa To fetch a file from anomymous FTP do the following steps after beeing
37 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa connected to the FTP server:
38 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa - When the FTP server asks for a login, try either 'anonymous' or
40 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa - When the FTP server asks for a password, your password is the
41 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa same as your login-ID and your hostname. To enter this properly,
42 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa use the following format:
43 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa LoginID@HostName.DomainName.
44 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa DO NOT use 'ident' or 'guest' since this is bad nettiquette.
46 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa If you are going to use FTP, use the site that is the closest to you
47 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa counting NET-VICE. If you don't know what I'm talking about, please
48 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa ask someone who know (ie. your system administrator).
50 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa Why YOU shold use the site closest to you NET-VICE:
51 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa - Faster access.
52 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa - Reducing the net load.
53 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa - Keeping the site.
55 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa Please do NOT use ftp to the sites during peak hours at the various
56 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa locations. Please respect this or else, if there is too much FTP'ing
57 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa going on prime time to the various places, the ftp site may have to
58 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa shut down. NON OF US WOULD WANT THAT, WOULD WE ?
59 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa So what is the peak hours at the various places in the world ? - Usualy
60 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa from 0800 AM to 0500 PM LOCAL TIME.
62 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa Do absolutely NOT post a question to this news-group or other news-groups
63 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa questions about how to use FTP. Ask this question to your local system
64 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa administrator or at your local help desk. There is also a FAQ on how to
65 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa use FTP. Look for it in the news.answers newsgroups.

80 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa file name (Example: fooBarEd.tar.Z) for easy searching with archie is a
81 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa must :-), either this or you include FTP sites where the editor is
82 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa sure to be found. A description of your editor should be limited to

156 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa The neat thing about this editor is that if your terminal
157 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa is not in the set of configured terminals, you can invoke
158 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa it with a command line option that prompts you for the

160 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa that terminal for you, so it will always work. It makes
161 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa extensive use of function keys, and lets you use escape

194 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa Elvis is one of the best PD Vi clones around. It is not
195 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa 100% compatible with the real vi/ex. Elvis has many small
196 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa extensions, some omissions, and a few features which are
197 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa implemented in a slightly different manner. A lot of

213 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa editors. It isn't as powerful as "vi", or "emacs", but I
214 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa think, it's easy to use, its runtime version is very small
215 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa (in disk space), and it lets you do almost everything you
216 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa usually do in other editors.

230 8d6e68fc 2024-06-16 mischa use it. In a Usenet poll, it had about equal footing with
