Hello Vincent. Vincent Lefevre, 02.10.2006 13:27: In package diakonos: Description: Customizable, usable console-based text editor Does that mean that some text editors distributed in Debian are not usable? Why don’t you just read further: Description: Customizable, usable console-based text editor an editor made it with the intention of being easier to configure and use than emacs, more powerful than pico and nano, and not as cryptic as vi or ex.

But it doesn't seem to have syntax highlighting and when I try to use Romanian characters it says: 'Nothing assigned to keycode ...' :( I would say with Romanian layout it is definitely unusable.

I don't know pico and nano, but emacs and vi are both perfectly usable (though I personally don't like the way vi works). -- Vincent Lefèvre [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Web: http://www.vinc17.org/ 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: http://www.vinc17.org/blog/ Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

That still seems to imply that other editors are non-usable by default. If the short description was A customizable console-based text editor, that would be less inflammatory will still getting the point across. -- Paul Johnson Email and IM (XMPP Google Talk): [EMAIL PROTECTED] pgpRbGK09Ns0n.pgp Description: PGP signature
