Bug#154638: RFA: sam -- the plan9 text editor
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Description: the plan9 text editor -- ed with a gui and multi-file editing
sam -d can be used without X (with an ed-like interface -- but with
more powerful regular expressions, the capacity to edit multiple files
with a single command, and unlimited undo). Files can be added to an
exiting sam session using the B command.
.
sam without the -d option is an graphical editor with pop-up menus and
a point+click interface. You'll want to read sam's manual page to use
the full power of sam, but you can probably figure out how to do basic
editing with a minimum of trial and error.
.
If you have a Plan 9 terminal, you can use the Plan 9 terminal with
sam to edit unix files, but not vice-versa; the Plan 9 authentication
scheme does not honor remote execution requests from a non-Plan 9
system.
Mail me first if you want it.
