Hi, 
I haven't had luck looking for Pedit. It has became a ms-dos editor and
that's the only version I've found on the net.
I downloaded applewriterII from asimov archive (was there an
ApplewriterI?) but I don't know if it's a dos3.3 or prodos program. I'll
give a look at it soon.
Please if you can point me to a place were Pedit is available for
download let me know.
Thanks,

Igor
