HI All,

can you hear me?

I am looking for recomendations for an editor and a version control system.

It is to be used to cross-compile C from OS/2 and/or DOS for an 8051.
This is for serious professional use, and my boss might pay if its not
ridiculously expensive.

I only want to learn one system, so I want it to be very universal.

I know about EMACS and RCS. I am not over fond of either. Are there any
systems that are easier to learn?

I don't want syntax highlighting and bells and whistles. I just want fast
loading, line number support and a search and replace facility. I also
want the same keys to do the same things under DOS and OS/2, and I want
CR/LF to insert and delete like any other char (eg NOT like TEDIT).

I prefer text mode programs.

I don't want hideous problems with long lines/files, but don't expect 
many of either.

I would like the editor to check the sources in and out of the version 
control system for me.

Andrew
