The editor/IDE that comes with FreePascal that Gene B pointed me to

Yes, I vaguely remember that. MICROS~1's "Quick" language products
had a very similar one, too - including QBASIC, which was actually
the basis of the original MS-DOS full-screen editor.
The TurboVision look& ?feel is the basis of SETedit. Not sure if the
Linux version was reverse-engineered or what.

?The Midnight Commander built-in editor gets pretty close to the old MS-DOS
EDIT.EXE, except it has a lot of customization options.
Does it? I did not know that. I thought it was a ripoff *cough* I mean
/loving tribute to/ the Norton Commander, which frankly I never had
any use for on DOS. I must reevaluate it, then. Norton's text-mode UI
was totally different, AIR.
?mc is a damn fine file manager too. ?:)
I am sure you're right. Even my *minimal* competence with cp, mv and
rm usually extends far enough for what I really need on xNix, though!
