The SlickEdit editor is similar to E3, almost certainly because it was written by the original designer and programmer of the E family of Editors, ClarkMaurer. IBM's Professional Edit PE and the PE32 editor look similar and share a number of common user interface elements with E3, but are far less capable. Among actively distributed editors, the X2 Editor actually looks the most like it, as does CSE (colorado state editor). |

The T editor, written by Tim Baldwin at IBM's UK Laboratories also looks a lot like E, and was available for DOS and OS/2. --DMcCunney
