    No.  I am looking at ways of saving Bob/Ike time so they can focus on the
core of the program, not on the ancillary things.

    So then what is the difference between an external editor and an internal
editor provided that it, as you say, goes up, down, backspaces?

    As does PMMail right now based on a lot of recommendations from me.  I am
looking at ways to get the 2 programmers we have, part time programmers, I
might add, more time to work on the core portion of the code which is falling
so far behind it isn't even funny.
