fte




Hey.

In continuation to the recent flux of editor war^H^H^Hdiscussion,
allow me to re-recommend fte, a real cool editor (originally OS/2,
later linux and recently Win32 and DOS).

It's very strong, yet rather simple; you can configure escape-meta
-alt-control-shift etc. sequences to do whatever you feel like, but
you also don't have to do that in order to get started.

Cute features include:
	many contexts (expandable, too) (ready: c, perl, sh, rexx,
	  diff, merge, IPF (ie, *roff), pascal, java, tex, html,
	  email..)
	color coding
	VERY good autoindentation (language specific. It did wonderful
	  things to my perl)
	Fold
	multiple buffers
	etc.

It's GPLed, it's available, give it a try.

PS: Of COURSE I'm writing this mail in vi! I just hack >20 lines in
fte  ;-)
