I am currently using not GNU for DOS (1.9). This is the not the GNU
Emacs editor. It is similar to GNU Emacs, but it is not as complex. I
really like it, and it works well with Yarn and YES. The price is
right (free!), and I have had no problems running the program under
Win95. This editor does not seem to suck up a lot of resources under
Win95, and, to me, for news/mail reading/writing, not GNU for DOS is
very simple, fast, and reliable. Of course, I am biased, because I
have grown accustomed to running various flavors of EMACS editors over
the past couple of years. Once you get a handle on a few keystroke
combinations for editing messages and articles, it's a breeze :)...
I have forgotten the name of the distribution file, but the
executable is called dnot.exe. I found it recently by searching on
www.shareware.com, and it is apparently available on SimTel mirrors.
There are also Win95/NT and Windows 3.x versions, too (wnot.exe and
nnot.exe, I think), if you are interested.
I am sure that you will get other suggestions for text editors, as
well. Try a few of them, and you will eventually find the one(s) that
you prefer.
Good luck, and welcome to the wonderful world of Yarn, YES, and Souper
:).
