Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
The current maintainer of elvis, Martin Mitchell <martin@debian.org>,
is apparently not active anymore. Therefore, I orphan this package
now. If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- see
http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed
instructions how to adopt a package properly.

Description: A much improved "vi" editor with syntax highlighting.
Elvis is a clone of vi/ex, the standard UNIX editor. Elvis supports
nearly all of the vi/ex commands, in both visual mode and ex mode.
Elvis adds support for multiple files, multiple windows, a variety
of display modes, on-line help, and other miscellaneous extensions.
Because of its html mode, and it ability to do http and ftp, it can now
also be used as a poor man's web browser!
.
Elvis provides color syntax highlighting, with syntax modes for C, C++,
Java, awk, makefiles, Perl, PostScript, Pascal, sh, Tcl, vrml, html,
diffs, man pages, and Fortran. If all this isn't enough for you, it is
easy to add new syntax modes (additions are welcome!). Elvis also has a
special hex editing mode for directly editing binary data.
.
This version of elvis also includes ctags and ref, for quickly navigating
about your source code.
Justification: Neglected many packages for a long time, didn't respond to pings
