ed is the standard text editor.

I've been thinking of writing a text editor (ncurses). It will use scheme so you won't have to fuck about with its own custom language.
Notably it will be multi-modal and not require key "chords" or force usage of ctrl- or meta-. For instance, you could bind mode switching to # or some other lesser-used key, type #g and suddenly you're in "greek mode". Obviously you aren't limited to the default modes and any key can be bound to anything. You could also use it as a general-purpose tr and pipe input to it:
echo "#glambda" | this-text-editorλαμβδα Also a possibility are macros, where you type whatever you want in, hit space twice (or sonething, or even nothing at all) and it converts accordingly, e.g. "lambda " -> "λ" Other things include that it will auto-indent and all that standard stuff, but you won't have to delete all the preceding whitespace if you accidentally type a newline four tabstops in. I'm also toying with it "learning" and understanding lexical scope for autocompletion. The general idea is that it should be let you write the programs without the language's syntax or the editor itself getting in the way (once you learn it, of course).

Name: Anonymous 2013-03-04 16:40 >>16 Huh? You just have to select, C-w and C-y. How's that different? The more bothersome sequence would be to copy, if you don't know that M-w copies, otherwise you have to kill, yank, yank, like a peasant. Name: Anonymous 2013-03-04 16:44 >>16 I use vim and consider keychords (including your qwerty-only and quite limiting C-c, C-v etc) harmful.

They don't seem to offer much improvement. I always thought programmers would prefer token-based editing, using like tab or space to navigate between tokens and let the editor do the formatting and indentation, much like a graphical form (sorry, no fioc for you). Yes. I would like that. Maybe this summer of code.

Not >>16,18, by the way, Name: Anonymous 2013-03-04 18:01 >>19 Maybe that is the way forward. I was possibly overcomplicating it to take account of languages that do not exist (that use non-ascii characters pervasively). Mainly in the ideal editor, whitespace shouldn't be a hindrance at all, and it should serve as an efficient way of inputting tokens rather than characters. An editor fully aware of what is legal to type next would be nice too. Name: Anonymous 2013-03-04 18:24 >>20 how are old are you?
