Right, and it's possible to put some things, like smileys, under Control-Key 
combinations?  For instance,	, which I use mostly is  with me.
And will it be saved automatically or any which way so that you don't have to 
program your macro's everytime you start up QEdit?

I've worked with them both; and since boxer/2 came in shareware the choice 
was easy.  Now I've laid my hands on a QEdit clone for OS/2 by the name of 
BEdit.  Almost the same with a couple of less features but very workable. And 
free! :)
Found that one accidentally coz' this Belgian programmer made a very nice bbs 
prog for OS/2 (AcroBat/2) and I'm having contact with him via the InterNet.
