Not yet Robert. I am concentrating right now on getting the text to the screen faster. (There must be a way other than buffering a line at a time) I ran into an interesting problem with ED while working on ATERM5. After doing all the changes I thought would be necessary, I used CTRL X to save and exit. I then got a requestor saying that the disk was full. I used CANCEL to get rid of it, figuring i'd save the file to RAM: and then clean up the disk in question. Unfortunately, ED decided that the SAVE was finished and OK, and exited. Looking on the disk revealed ATERM5 to be truncated severely.
