AE means "another editor." This is a very small text (not
programming) editor, with source, written in Trubo Pascal, and able to
edit files which fit in memory. Ideal for someone who just wants to do
light editing.
The author feels that it's easily learned and remembered, that's a
personal judgement, but I can't disagree. For all the people who wanted
a small editor, here it is, complete with ability to handle multiple
files with cut and paste.
Submitter wsinda@info.win.tue.nl (Dick Alstein) says:
AE (Another Editor) is a Public Domain text editor. Its main features
are:
* User-definable keyboard macros (record & playback).
* Text formatting facilities like word wrap and paragraph formatting.
* Multi-document (up to 3) with the possibility for cutting and pasting
between them.
* Efficient: most commands can be called with a single keystroke
(alt-key or function key).
* Small: 42k byte EXE file.
AE is intended for writing programs and small texts. It is NOT a
full-fledged word processor or programmer's editor. Its set of commands
is limited, but was designed in such a way that it should be easy to
learn and remember.
AE is written almost entirely in Turbo Pascal and is delivered with
full source code. Its main restriction is that it cannot handle files
larger than 64k bytes, but it comes with utilities for splitting and
merging large files so that these can be edited as well.
