> on the same subject - how about a good dos text editor to write code?
Well now, we are hitting all of the "religious" arguments aren't we?

I HIGHLY recommend TSE.  You can download a trial version from
http://www.semware.com

It is without a doubt the best editor I have used in the dos environment
and the number of macros that
have been written for it allow you to get a macro to do just about
anything. (In fact one guy wrote a macro
that interfaced to a circuit which started his coffee to shut up somebody
at his work that said, "Yes, but it doesn't start your coffee for you.")

Well, that's my $0.02

Hope that helps,
