JavE is a free Ascii Editor. Rather than for editing texts, it is intended for drawing simple diagrams by using Ascii characters.
It is like a graphics editor for editing texts instead of images
JavE is written in 100% pure Java and so should run on almost every operating system.
It is a standalone application and not available as applet.
