We are currently using nano-tiny http://packages.debian.org/unstable/editors/nano-tiny.html we dropped ae for woody. I don't know how nano-tiny is about UTF-8 or 8-bit charsets, but it is something to look into.

possible editor for installer: QEmacs
If we are going to use UTF-8 for the installer, then we need a new editor instead of ae. I looked at the source for ae and thought it would be easier to write a new editor from scratch than to add multibyte support to ae. QEmacs may be the answer: http://www-stud.enst.fr/~bellard/qemacs/ Last time I looked, ae was 23888 bytes. The binary for version 0.2 of QEmacs is 24060 bytes. I've just tried it out quickly, and, yes, it does allow me to edit a UTF-8 file in a UTF-8 xterm. I did manage to segfault it, though, so it's not a finished work. Also, I'm not sure whether it can do 8-bit charsets or only UTF-8. Worth looking at, I think. There isn't a Debian package yet.
