I have been looking a comfortable editor for Linux for a quite
long time now. The most promising I have found is Zed
(http://space.tin.it/io/saserafi). However, it's not exactly what
I want.
Minimal requirements (in preference order)
------------------------------------------
0. Runs on Linux
1. Fast screen update (just see dialog(1) or BB-demo: they are s-l-o-w!)
2. Allows using any keys if possible (including arrow keys+shift etc.)
3. Folding (see eg. The Aurora Editor or Scriptum)
4. Character mode based
5. Colors (syntax highlighting etc.)
6. Pretty good multiple programming language support (C/C++/Java/GAS/NASM)
7. Good undo/redo
8. At least simple support for writing documentation/messages
9. Binary-clean (including 8-bit clean!)
10. Comfortable to use (for me, the author!)
11. Bugless :)
12. Fast to start (-> small size, not bloated like Emacs)
Is there such an editor? Anyone?
I guess not... so I'm planning to write myself it. Any suggestions
are highly welcome.
