GOD, THAT TAKES EVEN LONGER.

EXTERNAL EDITORS ARE THE FUTURE OF ZZT

The original editor is what we were always supposed to use! Somehow we lost sight of that!

I have come to lead you.

There will always be a prevailing mystique among any civilisation. It builds itself as a barrier against change, and that always leads future generations unprepared for the universe's treachery.

I still use the clunky ZZT in-house editor. Haven't checked out the external add-ons, they'll probably make my life easier, but I _like_ spending hours in front of a computer doing nothing but clicking enter, tab, and arrows, DAMMIT!!!!

I am completely dependant on ZZTAE. I tried using ZZT's editor when my computer's processor started melting down and I didn't have the ability to run *large* programs like ZZTAE. I found out that I couldn't do without ZZTAE anymore.

Good god... if you honestly keep loading STK and MoreSTK and WeirdSTK and WiLSTK...

THEN TIME FOR A SELF PLUG: GET PURESTK.

But with PureSTK, you have to scroll through a lot more boards within a single file. Just having all four STK files at the top makes things a lot more organized and therefore faster.

yeah but if you use a toolkit you can totally avoid all that STK board jumping all together.
