[REQUEST] UltraEdit for DOS

I have read that there used to be a DOS version of UltraEdit about a zillion years ago. Does anyone happen to know where such a thing could be found?

  • It says here:
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UltraEdit
    UltraEdit is a text editor for Microsoft Windows, Linux,[1] and MacOS. It was initially developed in 1994 by Ian D. Mead, the founder of IDM Computer Solutions Inc.,[2] and was acquired by Idera Inc. in the August of 2021. Originally called MEDIT, it was first designed to run on Windows 3.1. A version called UltraEdit-32 was later created to run on Windows NT and Windows 95. The last 16-bit UltraEdit program version was 6.20b. UltraEdit-32 was later renamed to UltraEdit in version 14.00. Version 22.2 was the first native 64-bit version of the text editor. Starting with 2022.0 (successor of 28.20), versioning had become year-based.[3]

    And archive.org has this earlier Win3.1 build:

  • There are many different builds on the usual suspect: http://old-dos.ru/index.php?page=files&mode=files&do=show&id=5849

    But nothing for MS-DOS, it doesn't sound likely that there was such version
  • App's name has changed a couple of times: MEDIT -> EditPro -> UltraEdit. But it's always been an editor for Windows

    I did not know old-dos.ru had v1.32 32bit, but stumbled on it someplace looking for other stuff.
    Dinked around until I found a working key and uploaded it here:

  • Alright guys, thank you. I guess my information must have been wrong. Dang. I've been using Ultraedit for development under Windows for... well... a long time, and now I have to work on some embedded DOS systems, and having UE for DOS would've made my life a little easier. Oh, well.
