Just a few comments on the Mac stuff > SimpleText (included with MacOS) <== new version > TeachText (included with MacOS) <== old version (but also good) > Note Pad (included with MacOS) <== has no monospaced font > Saint Edit (shareware $10) <== don't know what this is > BBEdit (commercial but free light version is available) <== this is really an html editor, there are many of those. In this context, the most powerful editors come with office productivity software, and even as a Mac zealot I like and use Bill Gates' MS Office. The Mac also comes with a "Scrapbook" utility for storing all kinds of snippets, including frames of ascii animations. Just hit the forward or backward arrow keys on your keyboard and you have a flipbook type of animations that you can scrub forward or backward (important for smoothing out the animations in the draft stage). I used it for a while for my earlier animations. this sig copied from my Scrapbook ------------------------------------------ ,, _==_ Daddy Devilstein!
