If anyone want to take it for a spin then I suggest
the following.

Global Options - Editing - enable soft tabs [to get spaces instead of tabs]

Global Options - Saving & Backup - disable two stage save and max 
backups 0 [to work with VMS file versions]

Global Options - General - disable restore open files and split [unless 
you like to hop right back in]

install BufferTabs plugin
     options enable by default
     options location top
     (and Global Options - View - disable show buffer switcher [to avoid 
duplication])

install JDiff plugin
