RFS: zed -- Powerful, multipurpose, configurable text editor
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
I have prepared a revised version of zed [1] -- a package that was
orphaned [2] some time ago. This new version goes by the number
1.0.5-10 and conforms to Standars-Version 3.6.1. It's also
lintian/linda clean.
The package is available at mentors.debian.net [3] and I'm now looking
for a kind DD to check my packaging work and sponsor the upload. I
kept the changes minimal -- only the icon file is resized and moved to
a proper location.
I'd be happy to receive comments about the package whether they concern
my changes or not.
Regards,
- -Matti
