edith is a simple text editor which I needed as a utility on a
stripped down Linux system.  As such, edith might be useful on
boot and rescue floppies, along with Commander Keene.

edith.exe is the Windows version; edith, the Linux version.
edith.bas is the source code which might provide a tutorial on
some HotBasic coding techniques.

The F1-F10 keys for the Linux version now work both for
"runlevel 3" -- the "init 3" or terminal/console mode and for
the Terminal utility of a desktop "runlevel 5".

If you unpack to, and copy edith from, a mounted msdos drive
(e.g., c:\), it should run OK.  If you unpack directly to a Linux
directory (e.g., /usr/bin), you probably will have to

chmod 555 /usr/bin/edith

to make it executable under Linux.

Cheers, Jim
