This is the portable version of the OpenBSD mg editor
|
|
|
|
Mg (mg) is a Public Domain EMACS style editor. It is "broadly"
|
|
compatible with GNU Emacs, the latest creation of Richard M.
|
|
Stallman, Chief GNUisance and inventor of Emacs. GNU Emacs (and other
|
|
portions of GNU as they are released) are essentially free, (there are
|
|
handling charges for obtaining it) and so is Mg. You may never have
|
|
to learn another editor. (But probably will, at least long enough to
|
|
port Mg...) Mg was formerly named MicroGnuEmacs, the name change was
|
|
done at the request of Richard Stallman.
|
|
|
|
Mg is not associated with the GNU project, and most of it does not
|
|
have the copyright restrictions present in GNU Emacs. (However, some
|
|
of the system dependent modules and the regular expression module do
|
|
have copyright notices. Look at the source code for exact
|
|
copyright restrictions.) The Mg authors individually may or may not
|
|
agree with the opinions expressed by Richard Stallman in "The GNU
|
|
Manifesto".
|
|
|
|
This program is intended to be a small, fast, and portable editor for
|
|
people who can't (or don't want to) run real Emacs for one reason
|
|
or another. It is compatible with GNU because there shouldn't be
|
|
any reason to learn more than one Emacs flavor.
