Whap! is in AmigaTECH Library 16, which is stated in the forum announcement. There are two editors available for use in the forums: a very simple line-oriented editor which places numbers on each line during editing, and a FILGE derivative which is very similar to that used in EasyPlex (in fact, excepting the more arcane commands it is nearly identical). If you have your user options set to use the line editor, I can understand why it doesn't "operate like the editor found with EasyPlex". I would suggest you select OPTions and check which editor you are currently using. You may also wish to set your global parameters for the editor of your choice CIS-wide. Online help is available for the FILGE derivative by typing /HELP within the editor. No help is available for LINE EDIT, as the only thing one can do is type in sequential lines of text; once you /EXIT the file, all further editing is done via menus which self-prompt. Although it may not "seem appropriate for [you] to cover the expense for incongruities", and although the various forums and sysops are more than willing to help you in any way possible, you should keep in mind that it IS your responsibility to learn the basic functioning of the system. This includes reading online help and documentation files. Not knowing that there are two different editors available to the user, if that is in fact the case, is not an example of "incongruities within the… system." <continued>
