You might want to look into JED - it has EDT keymaps available, as well
as Wordstar and Emacs. It runs nicely on Unixes, and Win95 ports seem to
be happening as well. It's available at:

ftp://space.mit.edu/pub/davis/jed/

You'll also need the Slang library, available at

ftp://space.mit.edu/pub/davis/slang/

Slrn and Most, also available at that site, are my favorite newsreader
and pager, respectively. I haven't used Jed as much.
