Why? My question has nothing to do with how good or bad SVED may be. What worthwhile function does it provide that is not present in the roughly 20 editors we already have? I have not tried it. Side note: I thought about adding an editor to V8Power Tools. It would be optimized for binary size. Similar to the text vview, it would also support extremely large text files. You can even view a 2Gb log file with vview. A vedit would permit editing such massive files. But, I haven’t written it mainly for the same and additional reasons. Why? Do we really need it? Who is really going to be editing multi-gigabyte text files in DOS? Could you imagine making a minor change and saving such a massive file? Maybe someday when I am bored I will write it. But, we don’t need it. > > https://www.bttr-software.de/forum/forum_entry.php?id=22545 > >> posted by Oso2k, 06.05.2025, 10:15 >> (edited by Oso2k on 06.05.2025, 10:28) >> I really like sved (http://svardos.org/sved/).
