Boy, that would be great if someone did a port. But a couple
weeks ago when an NT 4.0 box landed on my desk (for a port
of some security related Perl CGI stuff), I figured
'a libg for NT' was one of those things much easier said
than done, especially on a platform where a C compiler
is the exception rather than the rule, and didn't bother
to ask:-) 

FWIW, I'm told that a $27 shareware editor called TextPad
is probably what I want. See http://www.textpad.com/
