ME (short for Macro Editor) is a programmer's text editor written
by a professional programmer for programmers. Although this editor is
inexpensive, its power rivals that of much more expensive editors. We
strive to keep the editor state-of-the-art and bug-free. If you have
any comments at all about the editor, please feel free to contact us.
This editor has been written specifically for the IBM Personal
Computer, and takes advantage of some of its features, like memory-
mapped display, fast string operations, etc. The editor is written
mostly in the C programming language, with some assembly language
routines to speed things up. The version of C compiler used is
Microsoft version 4.0.
All operations on text work extremely fast. All of the data is
kept in main memory for speed. With the cost of memory rapidly
decreasing, and with the new generation of CPU's which provide virtual
memory capabilities, I have seen no need to include virtual memory in
the editor. Virtual memory also slows many operations down, such as
searching through the entire file for a word. This is because of the
disk I/O needed to swap out a section of the file which is not being
used any longer, and to swap another section in.
FEATURES
1) Powerful C-like macro language for defining your own commands.
2) Remapable keyboard.
3) You may have up to 12 windows shown simultaneously, with a
different file in each window. You can also enlarge any window to
occupy the whole screen.
4) Regular expression pattern matching.
5) Column block operations.
6) Keyboard macros.
7) Escape to the OS/2 operating system.
8) 10 "pick" buffers.
