RE: QUAD editor source code anywhere?

Personally, IMHO, when dealing with any operating system, it is a good idea to learn the editor that comes with the system.  While I agree that there are many good editors out there (I personally prefer pico), you can possibly find yourself in a single-user, root disk only mode, where the only editor you have is the default one.  With no network, a PC based solution is not going to work.

Also, when doing installs, knowing the native one is nice too J.  I have a programmer here who refuses to learn vi.  That's fine, and is his decision.  Unfortunately, his decision often causes me problems because he uses ftp to upload/download his scripts (often having to go to his computer in another building because it's setup for him to do it automagically).  He forgets the simple chmod command and then my operations staff gets that nice "ksh: <filename> cannot execute".
