vi Alternative Required

[Ian Spare]

Some of our users/developers have formed a lynch party and came into the
tech support area this morining spoiling for a fight !!! They ( not me ! )
feel that vi is hopeless and would like a better editor ( their words ).

I think the problem is that they find productivity plumments when using 
3 editors , namely vi , wordstar and IBM ISPF editors.

I have told them that real programmers work at command line level but they
don't seem to beleive me .

What I think I need is a new editor for them , these are the requirements :

         1 . Simple to use.

         2 . Look and feel the same as either Wordstar or IBM ISPF editor.

         3 . Run on Unix 5.2 & 5.3 on NCR Tower 32/400 , 32/450 and 32/500.

         4 . Be fairly efficient , ie not to hungry on system resources.

         5 . Run on vt100 / 4970 / vt220 terminals.

         6 . Reliability.

I have come across Fenix ( a wordstar look-alike ) but the prefrence is
for IBM ISPF look&feel.

Any clues ???

PS I like vi !! Please don't tell me to use vi , and using emacs will only
confuse them further I think.
