I have a really, really good text editor, it's shareware and called
(what else?) TextPad. You can read about it and download it at their
web page
and if you like it, pay only $27.00. It comes in 16-bit and 32-bit
versions (the 32-bit will work with Win 3.1 and Win32s; the 16-bit
will work with Win 3.1 without Win32s) and is very rich in features.
There are a few other good ones out there... our engineers use
Multi-Edit, but I don't know much about it.
