Do I remember you considering adding a multi-purpose editor into
toybox?, one of our puppy folk came across SUE which origonated from VDE
back in 1982 which was created by Richard Forbes. Some background,
history, a compiled and source packages can be found at
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=52767 if it's of any help.
Apologies if it's not what you wanted or O.T., but a single file package
with source code may help you with yours.
