=> Sounds like I'd prefer Alsys!  At the moment, I prefer to
=> run Meridian from batch files - use QEdit or Borland C's
=> editor to write the code and a macro to run the compiler on
=> the command line and re-open the result file to check for
=> compilation errors.  Seems quite good - I hate ACE's editor!

I have to concurr with these observations.  I had a heck of a time getting
the ACE editor to work for me, so now I've gone to a 50-column multiple
windows editor (a.k.a. Visual Edit), and I've written a slew of batch files
to do the compiling on the command line.
