Several years ago (1994 to be exact) i ported  TDE 1.0 (a very simple DOS
editor from 1991) to OS/2.  That project is left half-finished on my disk but I
remember that it compiled, started and could display a file.  At least.

Well, you may get this stuff.  But TDE is still around:

TDE321X.ARJ TDE 3.21x TDE 3.21x4 Public Domain Editor. Full C source included.
 Now has PullDown Menus and Linux/Unix support. This 'x' version
...
TDE40X1A.ARJ TDE 4.0 with enhancements TDE 4.0x1 Public Domain Editor. Full C
 source included. Now has PullDown Menus and Linux/Unix support.
...
TDE50.ZIP TDE version 5.0 is a fully featured text file editor, including:
 configurable; syntax high- lighting; macros; stream, line and
 box blocks; graphic and extended ascii characters; grep; diff;
 date-time stamp; character-based editing of binary files. Public
 domain with C and asm source.


Given that TDE now compiles out-of-the-box with TurboC, MS-C, DJGPP, GCC and
has DOS- und Linux-Support in seperate small subdirectories you could take a
look at those much more feature-rich versions.  A port should'nt be to
difficult.

Bye,
  Vitus
