DOS ain't dead - GdM's EDIT (TP6 / Pascal)

Hi Pascal dudes,
I know I've already e-mailed most of you about this (which in hindsight probably would've been better to post here, but I didn't know marcov's e-mail offhand). Anyways ...

Gautier de Montmollin no longer develops his tiny DOS editor (and the site's URL is long gone, but see WayBack Machine archive, screenshot). He only works on a few SF projects these days. But he's given me permission to post sources here. He doesn't seem concerned about copyrights although he does warn that EDITOR*.PAS were originally derived from Borland (probably GPL incompatible, he says). I don't expect anyone to port this to FPC or VPC, but it may have some interesting tidbits in there (e.g. DR-DOS specific, maybe other stuff too) that can be gleaned for other Pascal editors. In particular, Stefan Weber tells me some of its 16-bit-isms may be hard to port (esp. the inline asm). But hey, it can't hurt to take a look, can it??

N.B. rr, this means your link to "EDIT by Gautier de Montmollin" under "Text editors, IDEs" (http://www.bttr-software.de/links/#texted) is broken.
