JOE (Joe's Own Editor) is a full featured terminal-based screen editor
|
|
which is distributed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). JOE has
|
|
been around since 1988 and comes standard with many Linux distributions.
|
|
|
|
JOE is being maintained by its original author Joseph Allen, plus all of
|
|
the people who send bug reports, feature suggestions and patches to the
|
|
project web site. JOE is hosted by SourceForge.net and its source code is
|
|
controlled under Mercurial.
|
|
|
|
JOE is a blending of MicroPro's venerable microcomputer word processor
|
|
WordStar and Richard Stallman's famous LISP based text editor GNU-EMACS
|
|
(but it does not use code from either program): most of the basic editing
|
|
keys are the same as in WordStar as is the overall feel of the editor. JOE
|
|
also has some of the key bindings and many of the powerful features of
|
|
EMACS.
|
|
|
|
JOE is written in C and its only dependency is libc. This makes JOE very
|
|
easy to build (just "configure" and "make install"), making it feasible to
|
|
include on small systems and recovery disks. The compiled binary is about
|
|
300K in x86. Note that JOE can use either the termcap or terminfo terminal
|
|
capabilities databases (or a built-in termcap entry for ANSI
|
|
terminals). The choice is controlled by a "configure" option. If terminfo
|
|
is used, a library is required to access the database (on some systems
|
|
this library is ncurses, but JOE does not use curses to control the
|
|
terminal - it has its own code for this).
