Hi folks, does anyone know of a simple text editor CDA for the IIGS?

I can't think of a CDA off-hand, but "Hermes" is a great NDA (i.e. via the Apple drop-down menu) text editor.

Cheers,
Mike

Softdisk GS issue 3 had the bestest CDA text editor ever - QuickEdit.
I think everyone saw that and gave up.  Because it was just that good.

Rats!  It only works when GS/OS is active.  (I've been looking for 
something that i can use when i'm mucking about in Applesoft.)

Brian,

You may want to try using it with Roger Wagner's P8 CDA, which allows *some*
CDA's to be accessible from ProDOS 8.

IIRC, you set up a 'SYSTEM' directory in your root P8 boot volume, copy your
CDA's to it, install the P8CDA.SYSTEM (or something similar) as your first
SYSTEM file, and you're set.

I did not know such a CDA existed but if it asks for GS/OS or P8, then read and write of files may be using the P16 - GS/OS file calls, hence would prevent one from using it in a 8-bit environment (ProDOS8 and friends).

Is my assumption correct?

I don't know its specific need; but if i try to bring QuickEDIT up after 
launching BASIC.system from GS/OS, it says:

   Unable to run QuickEDIT
   Insufficient memory or GS/OS not active

Dave Lyons had a freeware Visit AppleSoft CDA so you could muck with
Applesoft when you're in GS/OS.

Do disk commands work?  The main use case is editing exec files.

No... Disk commands, HGR, and HGR2 do not work. It's fairly small
(1,536 bytes) so maybe someone could disassemble it and add in disk
support.
