Sandy tries to maximize screen estate, minimize the SLOC used +and not get in your way too much. It can somehow be controlled using a +named pipe that lives in /tmp and all preferences and keybindings are +to be chosen at compile time. + +Features / Non-features + +- Unlimited undo +- Regex search +- Simple, almost modeless keybindings +- Selection-based operation +- Very simple commands read from a named pipe +- Very basic, regex-based syntax colouring +- Xterm-like mouse support +- X11 integration is achieved through external tools such as xsel and dmenu +- Lacks many text processing facilities that can be easily achieved by + piping text through an external command + +If you want to customize the compile-time config, place your config.h in +the same directory as the SlackBuild script. To get the default config.h, +extract it from the source tarball (it's called config.def.h there, +just rename it). + +Optional dependencies: If xsel and/or dmenu are installed, sandy uses +them at runtime for X11 integration. -- cgit v1.2.3
