Just curious, does anyone here use (as their editor) Epsilon?

No - I don't but I am reminded of my youth.
Years ago I used to repair PC's (Back when you had to type stuff to do
things, and when the 8087 was just awesome...) My editor of choice was
the MSDOS EDLIN tool. Without fail, every client who watched me working
asked why I didn't use QEDIT34 or ExtraED98 or
"InsertAwesomeEditorNameHere", to which I would always reply - 'you may
have "InsertAwesomeEditorNameHere", but I can never guarantee the next
client will have it, so I got good at using the standard editor!
That saved me so much time!
Now, where is that copy of TECO that I found for windoze recently.....
