When MS-DOS 5.0 was launched in 1991, one of the great innovations was the MS-DOS editor, a classic text editor who quickly became popular among users. Now, Microsoft has developed a new version of the MS-DOS editor called Edit, According to Ars Technica.
Compared to the original, Edit offers a series of improvements, including the support for Unicode. In addition, the limit of 300 kilobytes has been eliminated, which means that users can work with gigabyte size files if they wish.
Edit was written in the oxide programming language and It is based on the open source code. And does not require that Windows be executed; The text editor works equally well in macOS or Linux.
