EDT Emulators?

We've got a number of VMS users seduced into using unix, however they are
just pining away for lack of a familiar editor.  A year or two ago there
were a bunch of ads in Unix Review and the like for EDT under unix, but
these seem to have dissapeared.

Can anyone make some recommendations or provide warnings about such editors.
Transparency is important as these people will be working back and forth
between VMS and unix and something that is "almost" EDT will cause more pain
than I care to contemplate.

I've heard of EDT emulation in gnuemacs, however I'd prefer to avoid the
considerable overhead if there is an alternative that is just EDT and not
the whole world in one bite.  8-)

Either mail or postings here equally appreciated...
