Await the ascent of GUL!

GUL is the working name of an ambitious project to write an easy to use small fast and extremely portable text editor.

The level of configurability of this editor is almost insane. To start with, there are currently two cores available; doubly linked list of lines and buffer-gap model. Second, support for both S-Lang and NCurses plugins as well as native VT100 support. Finally, on top of this you can run the editor on just about any platform. We develop on everything from Win32, GNU/Linux, GNU/Hurd, OpenBSD, MSX Spectravideo, Amiga, Atari STE, well, you name it!

There is a members area located here, only those involved in the devolopment have access and know where it is. The code is maintained in Bazaar and can be accessed by:

bzr branch http://vmlinux.org/jocke/bzr/gul gul.dev

There are now two internal releases made, gul-0.1.0 and gul-0.1.1. Soon the gul-0.1.2 will be checked in to the new CVS repository (above), featuring: goto-line, search & replace, and more.
