The second major version of IBM's [[E]] Editor. '''Author:''' IBM Corporation '''Homepage:''' http://www.ibm.com '''Family:''' MsDosEditors IbmEditorFamily '''Platform:''' PC-DOS '''License:''' Commercial Although distributed on an IBM Internal Use Only basis, the editor was widely distributed outside IBM. It was almost certainly the most widely used DOS-based editor in IBM for several years. Often called [[E]] because of its family relationship to the previous [[E]] editor, E2 introduced a [[RexxLanguage|Rexx]]-like programming language that allowed E2 to be used as a testbed for the early-development of syntax-directed editing capabilities that helped to drive the success of later versions of the E Editor family, including [[SlickEdit]]. The programmability also allowed E2 to be used as an application development environment, and a number of other applications, including survey tools and a prototype word processor, were developed on the platform.
