b) Still looking for a non-GUI word processor which is simple to use, implements curses/ncurses efficiently for screen handling, uses simple fonts ( or no font at all !!) to give speedy outputs of big documents speedily on DMPs. We have not yet found anything remotely similar to the good old SCO Lyrix OR Uniplex wordprocessors. If someone has any suggestion on this it is welcome.
Try pico or nano (search google).
