It was begun in 1993 (thus the name). It uses the mouse, +selections, cut/copy/paste, and closely follows the model of editors +on the Macintosh and NeXT platforms. -Note that this requires a .e93rc file in the user's home directory. -You can find this file in /usr/X11R6/lib/e93. +* e93 supports columnar selection. It achieves this by allowing multiple pieces + of the text to be selected simultaneously (this is perhaps its most unique + feature). -Satoshi +* e93 imposes no limits on the line length, file length, or number of + simultaneous files which it can edit. + +* e93 is able to handle all 8-bit binary codes without complaint, or confusion. + +* e93 is highly configurable without recompiling because scripts which control + the editor can be written in Tcl. + +* e93 supports user-configurable syntax highlighting. + +WWW: http://www.e93.org + +- Jeremy Shaffner <jeremy@external.org> |
