Dear Fellow Chinese Students and Scholars:

On April 6th, Chinese students and scholars of The University of
Tennessee donated $10,977.77 to IFCSS's June Fourth Foundation. 
IFCSS thanks them for their supports to IFCSS's relief efforts.

Ever since the IFCSS was founded, IFCSS has been trying very hard
to help the June 4th victims.  Although it is extremely difficult
to distribute the relief fund back to China, $5,000 has been sent
back since last August.  It is our hope that we can allocate the
relief fund in small amount to those unknown victims.

The donations for June 4th victims, such as the $10,977.77 from
Chinese students and scholars of University of Tennessee, has
formed a sizable relief fund.  Over $40,000 has been deposited in
the IFCSS's June 4th Foundation account.

The June 4th Anniversary is approaching, the IFCSS calls for all
Chinese students and scholars to work together to identify June
4th victims, to explore reliable channels.  So we can send our
regards and help to the June 4th victims.

CEDIT23 is an update of CEDIT22, a mouse based Chinese word processor. 
I changed the display routine so that the program will run much faster. 
But only work on EGA/VGA now. It is for casual user, slow but very easy
to input Chinese characters, and English too. It is perfect to use it to
read HXWZ. Only 100k ram needed.

The program is in simtel20 archive site now. To download from unix machine:

ftp 192.88.110.20
name: anonymous
password: your-id
cd pd1:<msdos.editor>
tenex
get cedit23.zip

You then download the program to IBM machine and UNZIP it. I have received
many good replys and long distance calls around world. Thanks to all of you.
I would have spent more time on the program if not on scc :-)
