I must admit that I've never spent much time in LSE. I looked at it quickly but never spent the time to learn it. I guess I was initially turned off by the lack of "prettiness". B&W, no menus or requestors. Of course, I've learned emacs so LSE shouldn't be a problem. BTW, in considering what editors to support you should keep in mind that GNU Emacs is coming for the Amiga. It is version 0.9 now. You'll probably find a lot of people using it, given some time. I'm glad to see so many people are working on cpr. I was using it today to debug an assignment (write a heapsort routine). I made a number of silly errors and had to step through. One thing that would've been very helpful would be a way to watch the numerous elements of an array without having to type watch A[n] for each one individually. That seems like a small addition. So, I'll be eagerly awaiting 6.0! — Ethan
