Zile is a small Emacs clone. Zile is a customizable, self-documenting
real-time open-source display editor. Zile was written to be as
similar as possible to Emacs; every Emacs user should feel at home.
Zile features:
* Small. It is very useful for small footprint installations (like
on floppy disk) or quick editing sessions.
* 8-bit clean. Zile can operate with binary files.
* Looks like Emacs. Most Zile key sequences and function names are
identical to Emacs ones.
* Multi buffer editing with multi level undo. The number of files
and undo operations that Zile can handle is limited only by memory.
* Multi window. Zile can display multiple windows on the screen.
* Killing, yanking and registers. The standard killing, yanking and
register features of Emacs are available under Zile.
* Minibuffer completion. Zile can complete commands and filenames
in the minibuffer.
* Auto fill (word wrap). Zile automatically breaks the lines when
they become too wide (if the Auto Fill Mode is enabled).
