What's your standard for "good"? With only 8 megs, you probably want a console-based app -- X struggles in 8 megs, and X plus any GUI-based word processor will be as slow as molasses. Limiting yourself to console choices means that you won't find anything excellent, but a couple of decent choices are: pico, part of the pine e-mail package joe, which resembles the pre-GUI Wordstar 3.3 Most full-strength Linux distributions will include both of these.
