Oscar,

Borland purchased Brief from Underwear (Solution Systems?) many years ago. The last I heard was that they were retooling it. I was on the beta and somewhere around here have a .92 beta copy of it. I think it eventually just disappeared or was killed by Borland.

Sad, as it was a great editor.
