This editor is especially useful for friends of the Vi editor, who do not want to give up the little conveniences offered by Windows. It is compatible with Windows Notepad and includes a hexadecimal edit mode is available for editing binary files. Extremely large files are editable with nearly no limitation by virtual memory. Multiple language support is included.

    - In rare cases, a memory allocation error occured. A potential reason – a faulty calculation of the display lines in the main window – solved

    - The message for memory allocation errors (“Not enough local memory”) is displayed with a hint number to allow determining the reason

    - Due to an error in resource numbering it was not possible to select the paper orientation for printing. Fixed

    - Pasting binary data containing null bytes at the end of file jumbled the byte order. Also fixed

    - Determining the number of lines to scroll with a wheel mouse is now adjusted to the current Win32 API. At least in Windows XP the mouse wheel always scrolled by 3 lines

    - The caret shape (the blinking cursor) is customizable now

    Why not use GVim? This seems like duplicate effort for a Windows version of VI.
