Is there any way at this late date to acquire a copy of Mark of the
Unicorn's MINCE editor for CP/M? While it originally was supplied with
partial source, it's rumored that full source might have been available
later.
Back in the day I used Wordstar in non-document mode, but in 1984 my
fingers were retrained for Emacs and now I have almost as much trouble with
Wordstar as with vi. (You can't spell "evil" without "vi".)

I used Mince but later switched to microemacs which was faster. I know the
source to microemacs was available.

MINCE, now there is a blast from the past. I remember using MINCE on an
IBM 5150..and easy step because I'd become familiar with EMACs on our PRIME
system.

Craig Finseth released an Emacs-like editor for the HP95LX with source code called
Freyja.
I suspect it is at least a spiritual cousin of MINCE.

If you haven't yet found a copy of MINCE, let me know. I think I have
at least the compiled binary in my archives.
