About CygnusEd Professional Release 5
The perhaps most famous Amiga text editor for programmers was developed 20 years ago (1986/1987) Bruce Dawson, Colin Fox & Steve LaRocque (CygnusSoft Software) and was originally self-published. Even back then CygnusEd distinguished itself through its high performance and robustness. Development on CygnusEd would proceed at a steady pace in the years to follow. CygnusEd was one of the first programs to feature an ARexx interface and the first Amiga text editor with an Undo/Redo feature. Many Amiga programmers "grew up" with CygnusEd and a considerable part of the Amiga software library was created with CygnusEd.
The last version published was CygnusEd Professional 4. It became available in 1997 and was a completely revised version of the editor and its auxiliary tools, adapted for AmigaOS 3.1.
The current CygnusEd version 5 was enhanced with new features, and robustness and performance were improved again. The "Ed" auxiliary tool was rewritten from scratch and its complete source code is included with the editor. Many limitations and deficiencies of CygnusEd were removed. Version 5 is also the first CygnusEd release ported entirely, including all auxiliary tools, to the PowerPC and one of the first commercial software packages specially adapted for AmigaOS 4.

| My copy arrived this morning, not had time to do more than instal it check it actually ran so far 
The mousewheel scrolling is a bit naff though, the cursor doesn't scroll if the scroll bar has reached an end of the document, so if your scrolling up it stops a few lines before the top, if your scrolling down it can be many lines from the bottom when it stops scrolling.
It needs to change from scroll up/down to cursor up/down when it reaches the ends so that you can use the wheel to get to any line in the document... Last edited by Severin on 12-Jun-2006 at 09:33 PM.

The scroll wheel acts upon the scroll bar at the side of the window. And the scroll bar won't move the cursor beyond the "scroll edges" of the screen. Also, scrolling in general should not move the cursor unless it is necessary. If you want to change the cursor position you might want to click on the position the cursor is to move to. |

Good job APC&TCP.
