Possibly, but I wouldn't really recommend it. A real programming language
should be used (e.g. C, C++, Pascal) for such a big task. You'll need large
buffer allocation and probably a lot of other things that Baja doesn't have.

External editors simply create a text file (the name of which is usually passed
on the command line). No "message base" knowledge is necessary.

Uh.. do you know any other programming languages? :-)
