sandy - simple ncurses text editor ================================== sandy is a simple ncurses text editor. Requirements ------------ In order to build sandy you need the ncurses header files. Installation ------------ Edit config.mk to match your local setup (sandy is installed into the /usr/local namespace by default). Optionally, create a config.h file to further configure the editor at compile time. An examples file is provided as config.def.h. Afterwards enter the following command to build and install sandy (use root if needed): make clean install Running sandy ------------- Use the following syntax: sandy [-r] [-S | -s SYNTAX] [-t TABSTOP] [File] Where: -a starts with autoindent -r opens the file read-only -S use no syntax colors at all. -s SYNTAX lets you specify the syntax colors for this file -t TABSTOP sets the tabstop for this instance of sandy Name ---- In case you are wondering, sandy was the smartest pet ferret. She died of cancer though. We were sad and started coding this editor. Known issues ------------ Mouse scroll down works if ncurses is compiled with --enable-ext-mouse. If UTF-8 support is not working, change -lncurses to -lncursesw (some distros point this to the same lib, some don't.)
