In the 1990's I used a wonderful editor called Brief. But recently I am using the Brief emulator mode inside the Visual Studio editor and I am not satisfied.
The one main advantage of the Brief editor was, it did not have any scroll bars, and menu items, and I could use my screen fully. And the window separator was also very slim.
My question: Those guys/gals who used to be fans of Brief, after the DOS version died, which editor resembles the DOS version of Brief better?
Note: This problem is pronounced when I am editing in Windows. And I have some how learnt to use vi in Linux.
Solution Systems closed permanently after the sale to Borland. Brief is no longer sold by Borland.

The Zeus editor has a Brief emulation mode, but as the author of Zeus, I might be a little biased.
On the other hand, some Zeus users think Zeus is a better Brief than Brief.
