Thanks for the Ad. :)

Potential new users should know that it's not a happy editor under NT-based
operating systems [NT, 2000, XP].

The two main things that don't work are transferring the Windows Clipboard
and Long Filename support. If you can live without those or you're using 95,
98 or ME the editor works OK.

The clipboard not working in NT can be worked around by activating QuickEdit
and Insert Mode on the DOS-box EE:CS runs in. The mouse can then be used to
copy+paste to/from the window - Left click + drag to select text from EE:CS,
right click or enter to copy to clipboard. Right click alone pastes the
Windows clipboard. Note that the editor takes no part in copying and pasting
in this way - all the work is being done by the DOS box.

The lack of long filenames under NT is a bit more annoying. :(
