Changes compare to uEmacs/PK

  • Line termination detection with new buffer mode (either Unix or DOS).

  • Encoding detection (ASCII, Extended ASCII, UTF-8 or Mixed).

  • Some fixes related to size either unchecked or limited (strcpy, insert-string, filenames, $kill).

  • Major refactoring of headers and file dependencies, hopefully to improve maintenance.

  • Some defaults changed due to 'finger habits': ue instead of em, ^S in commands mapping...

  • gcc limitation on Windows (WCHAR_WIDTH 16).

  • Display of double and zero width characters ongoing.

How to build

  • dependencies: gcc, gmake, ncurses-devel.
