- Hello,
-
- This document is not meant to start a religous war on editors. Its only
- purpose is to bring to public knowledge the existence of an editor under
- the UNIX platform which by its power and ease of use is worth considering.
-
- The editor is called CRISP.
-
- CRISP is compatible to BRIEF, the editor which has sold more in numbers
- than every other editor combined under DOS. CRISP can do a true keystroke
- emulation of BRIEF. User's can run existing BRIEF macros, as well as use both
- BRIEF/UNIX regular expressions.
-
- CRISP also has a VI emulation which passes the VI-turing machine macro test.
- It gives seasoned VI programmers, what they have always longed for:
- multi window / multi buffer environment, with full color/hilighting support.
-
- CRISP runs on various UNIX platforms and has a true X version with scrollbars,
- buttons etc, as well as a character version. The X version has both OPENLOOK
- and a MOTIF implementation.
-
- The latest commercial version is 3.0+. For information regarding its
- availability, ordering information, and pricing send a mail detailing your
- needs to: owner-crisp-list@uunet.uu.net
-
- CRISP IS A COMMERCIAL PRODUCT.
