[ITP] vile: VI Like Emacs - vi work-alike



I have created a set of packages for the vile editor which I was hoping
to have included in potato.

  deb-src http://www.ozemail.com.au/~bod/debian unstable non-free
  deb http://www.ozemail.com.au/~bod/debian unstable non-free

A Debian developer, Mikolaj Habryn has offered to sponsor these
packages.

Notes:

 * Brian Sulcer has a 995 day old entry in prospective-packages for vile
   which I assume is dead.

 * The copyright currently requires that this package be placed in
   non-free, although the next release (which is due anytime now) will
   be under the GPL.

Package: vile
Version: 8.3x-2
Section: non-free/editors
Priority: optional
Architecture: i386

Maintainer: Brendan O'Dea <bod@compusol.com.au>
Description: VI Like Emacs - vi work-alike
 vile is a text editor which is extremely compatible with vi in terms of
 ``finger feel''.  In addition, it has extended capabilities in many areas,
 notably multi-file editing and viewing, syntax highlighting, key rebinding,
 an optional embedded perl interpreter, and real X window system support.
 .
 This package contains the character-mode binary.  Required support files
 are contained in vile-common.  Source code highlighting filters are in
 vile-filters.  X11 binaries are in the xvile-xt, xvile-xaw and xvile-xm
 packages.
