Installation:
  Copy EDITV.EXE and EDITVUS.HLP to a directory that's in in your DOS-path.
  Both files must be in the same directory.
  If   you  want  a  minimal  installation,  just  copy  EDITV.EXE  without
  EDITVUS.HLP. You will then have a fully functional editor, but no on-line
  help.

Usage:

Credits:
  The people at the former  Borland  Co.,  now  Inprise,  made  this  thing
  possible  by  providing the editor kernel and a superb DOS user interface
  called Turbo Vision.
  Special thanks go to Jose Luis Rivera-Noriega from Mexico,  who suggested
  several excellent ideas to improve this editor.
