QEmacs has features other big editors lack:
* Full screen editor with an Emacs look and feel with all Emacs common features:
multi-buffer, multi-window, command mode, universal argument, keyboard macros,
config file with C like syntax, minibuffer with completion and history.
* Can edit files of hundreds of Megabytes without being slow by using a highly
optimized internal representation and by mmaping the file.
* Full Unicode support, including multi charset handling (8859-x, UTF8, SJIS,
EUC-JP, ...) and bidirectional editing respecting the Unicode bidi algorithm.
Arabic and Indic scripts handling (in progress).
* WYSIWYG HTML/XML/CSS2 mode graphical editing. Also supports lynx like
rendering on VT100 terminals.
* WYSIWYG DocBook mode based on XML/CSS2 renderer.
* C mode: coloring with immediate update. Emacs like auto-indent.
* Shell mode: colorized VT100 emulation so that your shell work exactly as you
expect. Compile mode with next/prev error.
* Input methods for most languages, including Chinese (input methods come from
the Yudit editor).
* Hexadecimal editing mode with insertion and block commands. Unicode hexa
editing is also supported.
* Works on any VT100 terminals without termcap. UTF8 VT100 support included
with double width glyphs.
* Small! Full version (including HTML/XML/CSS2/DocBook rendering and all
charsets): 200KB big. Basic version (without bidir/unicode
scripts/input/X11/C/Shell/HTML/dired): 49KB.
