Hello, baktra. :)

Edit13 is very suitable editor. Is it possible to eliminate CR symbol?

The dots evidently shows us the end of line, isn't it?

Press CTRL+O twice :-). It toggles displaying non-printable characters. It cycles in three modes. Nothing, dots+crlf, dots only

The dots just show unused space (and also can serve as a primitive ruler)

The CR shows end of a paragraph

Hello baktra :)

I tried EDIT13 and it's very clear looking and the text is very readable!!!

Here <msg     .by...> stanza has some digits - it's ASC("...") of MAE controls...

 

And the result...

Hello, Marius :)

Is it possible to use all ATASCII Pseudographics in PANTHER and how?

Sometimes it's very big problem in programming because some of the symbols are used by editor as control symbols.

I have very fond memories of panther. This was a great tool, and also supported Atascii graphics IIRC.

It was also compatible with SpartaDos disk version. 

Very nice.

 

Overall, gram-by-gram, seems the best of the bunch (reminds me of MS-DOS editing tools). 

 

Very easy to use, no need to invoke a help menu (as it uses a GUI-like drop-down visual representation), supports multiple column-width formats, customizable screen colors and text brightness, and works very well with SDX

 

Way to go!

Can't get this to run at all from the SDX command line prompt.

Nice: I quite like this one. The 'DIR' function could use some means of traversing the Sparta directory tree.

Because this is a DOS 2.0 disk marked in the VTOC as MyDOS disk. Edit the sector $168, change the first byte from $03 to $02, save the changes - and voila, it will now be readable.

It is in fact DOS II+ disk, that's why the difference in the file system organization.

Edit13 is exactly what I have been looking for. An editor whereI can hide the non printable characters. The only bummer is there's no way to get a directory listing to see your file names prior to loading a document.

I copied Edit13.com from the flop48 disk to a new one and made it outrun on boot. hitting CtrL-Q exits to dos where you can do a Dir at least and then go back.
