    I have Codewright and had to buy another editor for another PC. CodeWright
    was bought out by Borland and not going to be supported in the future. I
    bought SlickEdit for the new PC and it works great. It has the look and feel
    as Codewright. It almost looks like it was written by the same person as
    Codewright.
