   Hmm... Let's try my favorite MPE editor:
 
Qedit/iX. Copyright Robelle Consulting Ltd. 1977-1994.  Type ? for help.
(Version 4.3)
Licensee:  Unison Software, Inc. [25U]
Today's Hint. HOld command: writes lines to the HOLD file (use HOLDJ to
append).
/t ../CVSRC/t2
Scratch file
'Language' is now DATA
 
   Et cetera.  VIsual mode works.  Files keep as byte-stream and work
   correctly under the shell's vi.  Works great, lasts long!
