 JP> Hello Bruce ! 
 
 JP> Do they have to be .txt file ?

 JP> I had the solution without knowing it.
 
 BC> That is part of your text editor, not part of BlueWave. 

 JP> That is again part of the solution but a misspoke on my part.
 JP> I knew that TSE Jr. was part of the solution. Thanks for your time.

No problem. 

Luckily, most of the early, small, text/document editors chose to 
use the original WordStar Shortcut Command Keys. 

I have one called TED 3.0 (Tiny Editor) that has a 64k file size 
limit, with a 256 character per line limit. 
Requires 150k of free RAM to run. 
Tabs are fixed at 8 column intervals. 
It doesn't support word wrap. 

It will do the KR WordStar command to insert a text file, 
or copy and paste text from another file. 

It isn't 100% WordStar compatible, and the 64k file size limit means 
I never spent enough time to get used to it. 

TED3.DOC is 28,279 bytes
TED3.COM is 12,320 bytes

WordStar came with my first computer, along with simple step-by-step 
instructions on how to use most features in it. 
Since I'm comfortable with it, I stuck with it. 
With version 7.0 they tried to become MS Word or WordPerfect.  
I went back to version 6.0. 
I even tried the Win3.1 version, I decided the word processor in a 
Windows publishing program works better, and offers more features. 
Other then that, I'll stick with the DOS WS v6.0 for document and 
nondocument text work.
