levee works reasonably well under ELKS, but is not very useful as it stores
the whole file in RAM, and thus can only edit small files. I haven't done
much with stevie yet. elvis works under ELKS in theory, but runs out of
heap memory as soon as it is run. elvis is much more capable then levee as
it uses a swap file, and so can edit large files, and is more complete.
