In a crowded and competitive field of text editors, what is Redit's distinction?

Well, on one side you have the ultra simplistic "better than nothing" ED, and on the other side there are text editors with lots of features, but which also are quite big in size (200KB+). In between there are not many editors available, and Redit seems to help fill this gap.

Redit is a text editor which is just a bit more advanced than ED, it has proper cut/copy/paste functionality, and it works on any Amiga from Workbench 1.2 to AmigaOS 3.9. It also has a horizontal slider gadget (which ED lacks), and it's only 60KB big.

I have just tested Redit, and I can confirm that it seems to work fine on expanded Amigas as well (A1200 with 68040 CPU & Picasso96 screen).

Seems nice, but I'll stick to vim.

I'll give it a spin.  ;)

Poor ED.  It always gets bad press.  If its startup file is disabled, it's really fairly functional.  In my memory, the most primitive editor I was ever saddled with was Mocrosoft's Edlin utility from Dos.

One of my old Amiga favorites was XDME.

I think there isn't a single Kick / OS 1.2 compatible editor with these features out there.

Translated from the website:

- Supports AmigaOS 1.2 to 3.9.
- Does not depend on any libraries / system files: Redit can be run off a plain disk without starting Workbench
- Unlimited document size and line length (until memory is full)
- Supports tabulators (with configurable width)
- Multi document support (including copy / paste between them)
- Fast, even on 7 MHz 68000 systems
- Small memory footprint
- Supports the usual block operations, text selection is possible with keyboard and mouse
- Configurable colors
