Installpkg e3.tgz should put into

/usr/local/bin/e3 and e3pi - e3 - wordstar emulation e3pi- pico
/usr/local/doc/e3/e3.hmtl and README and ChangeLog
/usr/bin/tail - I added this from txtutils.tgz because it is required

21K .tgz file, 9K executable which does not spell check, but unlike the
48K Nano (Pico reduced) it moves one word at a time forward and backward,
and it goes to start and end of file. Pico drives me crazy because it
does not.

E3 is written in assembler language, has no library dependencies, and
ought to work in BL1 as well as BL2 and maybe BL3. Even with tail added
it is smaller than Nano by 15K (only 9 + 24K). It includes some sort of
calculator, which I don't think comes with the RAMdisk versions.

Please try it out and vote whether to include it in BL3 and in future
BL2s.
