sandy (minimalist text editor)
|
|
|
|
sandy is an ncurses text editor with an easy-to-read, hackable C
|
|
source. Sandy tries to maximize screen estate, minimize the SLOC used
|
|
and not get in your way too much. It can somehow be controlled using a
|
|
named pipe that lives in /tmp and all preferences and keybindings are
|
|
to be chosen at compile time.
|
|
|
|
Features / Non-features
|
|
|
|
- Unlimited undo
|
|
- Regex search
|
|
- Simple, almost modeless keybindings
|
|
- Selection-based operation
|
|
- Very simple commands read from a named pipe
|
|
- Very basic, regex-based syntax colouring
|
|
- Xterm-like mouse support
|
|
- X11 integration is achieved through external tools such as xsel and dmenu
|
|
- Lacks many text processing facilities that can be easily achieved by
|
|
piping text through an external command
|
|
|
|
If you want to customize the compile-time config, place your config.h in
|
|
the same directory as the SlackBuild script. To get the default config.h,
|
|
extract it from the source tarball (it's called config.def.h there,
|
|
just rename it).
|
|
|
|
Optional dependencies: If xsel and/or dmenu are installed, sandy uses
|
|
them at runtime for X11 integration.
