The paper describes the implementation of an editor designed and constructed with portability in mind. We give first a brief introduction to the editor from the user's point of view, then we discuss the methods used to ease the problems of portability, and finally we explain some data structures used in its implementation, structures which, we believe, are interesting in their own right.
