Bug#734331: RFH: mg -- microscopic GNU Emacs-style editor



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request assistance with maintaining the mg package.

There's been a new release waiting to go for months,
but I have been too lazy to do it.
I need someone to either do it or nag me into doing it.

Current mg has a dependency on a new C library "clens".
A working draft clens package is ready.
Step #1 is to get that sponsored.
https://opensource.conformal.com/wiki/clens
Once that's done, mg's new upstream is trivial.

The package description is:
 This program is intended to be a small, fast, and portable
 editor for people who can't (or don't want to) run real
 Emacs for one reason or another.  It is compatible with GNU
 because there shouldn't be any reason to learn more than
 one Emacs flavor.
 .
 Packages which provide editors with broadly similar goals include
 .
   * e3;
   * joe;
   * jove and xjove;
   * ng-cjk, ng-cjk-canna and ng-latin;
   * qemacs and qemacs-nox; and
   * zile
