I actually prefer it to everything in Linux save the Emacs Client GUI. It does fall short in a few areas (f'r'instance the installed vocab file for its Spell Check is six lines long and requires manual editing for any more words), but given everything else it can do -- including reading "quite large" files created in Linux {7- or 8-bit text as well as non-text} -- that's a ladle in a lake, if you get my meaning.
Thought I'd add a helpful suggestion. Hoping it wasn't too OT for this thread; I don't mean to distract while the OP still hasn't got a workable answer to his question.
