[conspire] Microsoft Edit (wfm)

[Don Marti]

I downloaded and built Microsoft Edit -- 
https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/06/microsoft-surprises-ms-dos-fans-with-remake-of-ancient-text-editor-that-works-on-linux/ 
-- and it's pretty slick. Runs in a terminal but should be not confusing 
for people used to GUI conventions on other platforms. (Mouse works for 
menus and selecting text. ctrl-x, ctrl-c, ctrl-v work, you can do alt-f 
to open the file menu, all that stuff.)

It doesn't look like there are any dependency or license issues with 
packaging it, and there are packages in some of the distributions 
already. When this gets into the mainstream distributions, users who 
read docs that say "edit the file..." and type "edit" followed by the 
filename will get something that works.
