Zile is Lossy Emacs

Zile is a small, fast, and powerful Emacs clone. It is useful for small footprint installations (e.g. on floppy disk) or quick editing sessions. Festures include:

• Small.

  It is very useful for small footprint installations (like on floppy disk) or quick editing sessions. A typical binary is about 100Kb.

• 8-bit clean.

  Zile can operate with binary files.

• Looks like Emacs.

  Most Zile key sequences and function names are identical to Emacs ones.

• Multi buffer editing with multi level undo.

  The number of files and undo operations that Zile can handle is limited only by memory.

• Multi window.

  Zile can display multiple windows on the screen.

• Killing, yanking and registers.

  The standard killing, yanking and register features of Emacs are available under Zile.

• Minibuffer completion.

  Zile can complete commands and filenames in the minibuffer.

• Auto fill (word wrap).

  Zile automatically breaks the lines when they become too wide (if the Auto Fill Mode is enabled).
