Adie Adie is a fast and convenient programming text editor written using the FOX Toolkit. It is also a convenient file viewer, supporting several methods to move from one file to the next. For each visited file, it remembers where you were last looking, and which special places have been bookmarked, so you can quickly return to frequently visited places. Users can optionally visit files with a single click by displaying the File/Directory browser side by side with the text.

DiaSCE DiaSCE is a C/C++ code editor for GNOME. It pretends to be a complement to Glade, so it doesn't include an environment for GUI development. It has neither a debugger or other kind of tool to help debugging. The idea is for it to be a light code editor that doesn't need too many resources, and makes use of external tools (gcc, glade, ddd, etc.) for some tasks. This project was formerly known as 'david.'

Diakonos Diakonos is a customizable, usable, console-based text editor. It features arbitrary language scripting, bookmarking, regular expression searching, parsed ("smart") indentation, macro recording and playback, a multi-element clipboard, multi-level undo, a customizable status line, completely customizable keyboard mapping, and customizable syntax highlighting.

GNU Source-highlight Source-highlight reads source language specifications dynamically, thus it can be easily extended (without recompiling the sources) for handling new languages. It also reads output format specifications dynamically, and thus it can be easily extended (without recompiling the sources) for handling new output formats. The syntax for these specifications is quite easy (take a look at the manual). Source-highlight is a command line program, and it can also be used as a CGI. Notice that source-highlight can also be used as a formatter (i.e., without highlighting): you can, for instance, format a txt file in HTML (and it will take care of translating special characters, such as, <, >, &). Since version 2.2, source-highlight can also generate cross references; in order to do this it relies on GNU Ctags, http://ctags.sourceforge.net. These are the output formats already supported:

• HTML
• XHTML
• LATEX
• TEXINFO
• ANSI color escape sequences (you can use this feature with less)
• DocBook

These are the input languages (or input formats) already supported (in alphabetical order):

GNU moe GNU Moe is a powerful, 8-bit clean, text editor for ISO-8859-15 and ASCII character encodings. It has a modeless, user-friendly interface, online help, multiple windows, unlimited undo/redo capability, unlimited line length, global search/replace, block operations, automatic indentation, word wrapping, and a directory browser. It is stable, small, easy to use, and powerful enough for almost all the system editing tasks.

Ide.php 'Ide.php' is a Web-based editor for quick development of server side code. It has a rapid prototyping environment so you can test and save snippets of code with minimal overhead. You can use it to develop PHP, ASP, JSP, SSI, HTML, or CGI.

JEdit Syntax Package The jEdit Syntax Package is a stand-alone version of the text control from an older version of jEdit. It supports features such as syntax highlighting, bracket matching, rectangular editing, macro recording, and more. The jEdit Syntax Package is lightweight, and meant solely for embedding into Java user interfaces. It does not include some of the nicer features of jEdit, including plugins, and scripting.

Ktexmaker2 Ktexmaker2 is a LaTeX source editor and TeX shell for KDE2. The principal LaTeX tags can be inserted directly with menus. LaTeX-related programs can be launched launched automatically with menus or manually via the "TeX Terminal" (a special xterm session).

Libtecla The Tecla library provides programs with interactive command line editing facilities, similar to those of the unix tcsh shell. It supports recall and editing of previously entered command lines, TAB completion of file names and application specific tokens, and in-line wild-card expansion of filenames. The optionally reentrant modules which perform TAB completion and wild-card expansion are also available separately for general use.

Linedit 'Linedit' is a readline-style library that provides customizable line editing features. It uses UFFI for foreign bindings, so it is (theoretically) portable. It supersedes Cl-readline. It functions as both a single line text reader and a nulti-line form reader. It has completion on packages and symbols in the current image, as well as on directories and filenames. It has unlimited undo, kill-ring, and history, as well as paren matching.

Lpe Lpe is a small, fast, visual text editor designed to make editing code easier. It provides simultaneously all the features that may be required in a good code editor while preserving a light and intuitive feel that makes it nice to use. It supports seven different languages.

Minimum Profit Minimum Profit (mp) is a programmer's text editor. It features small memory and disk requirements, syntax highlighting, context-sensitive help for the source code being edited, multiple simultaneous file editing, ctags support, word wrapping, and more. It can be compiled for Linux / Unix (console), GTK, and MS Windows.

Minimum Profit 2 Minimum Profit (mp) is a programmer's text editor. It features small memory and disk requirements, syntax highlighting, context-sensitive help for the source code being edited, multiple simultaneous file editing, ctags support, word wrapping, and more.

Moleskine Moleskine is a source code editor for the GNOME desktop. It features include syntax highlighting, GUI configuration, easy to navigate bookmarks, word autocompletion, indentation guides, and matching braces. The program can be configured to support any programming language that Scintilla supports. Users must download and install all the following three modules: Moleskine, PyGtkScintilla and GtkScintilla. As of March 3, 2005, this package has no maintainer.

NEdit NEdit is a Unix text editor for programmers and general users. It has a graphical user interface and a macro language with a complete library of editing functions, syntax highlighting for 30 common languages and text processors, and the best mouse-interactivity available in a Unix text editor. It has built-in syntax patterns for CSS, Regex, and XML, and supports wheel mouse scrolling and high/true-color systems.

Readline The Readline library provides a set of functions for use by applications that allow users to edit command lines as they are typed in. Both Emacs and vi editing modes are available. The Readline library includes additional functions to maintain a list of previously-entered command lines, to recall and perhaps reedit those lines, and perform csh-like history expansion on previous commands.

Rlwrap rlwrap is a readline wrapper, a small utility that uses the GNU readline library to allow the editing of keyboard input for any other command. It maintains a separate input history for each command, and can TAB-expand words using all previously seen words and/or a user-specified file.

Xsh XSH is an XML editing tool/programming language that can be used either interactively or for batch-mode XML processing. It may be used to query and modify XML documents. XPath expressions are used to select parts of XML document to be processed. Both the system shell and Perl are accessible from XSH in a very natural way. XSH uses XML::LibXML bindings of gnome-xml2 library in the background level. Features include (among others) the ability to work with multiple DOM trees at once, filesystem-like navigation within the DOM tree using XPATH, the ability to copy/move nodes within a DOM tree or between two DOM trees, a 'while' statement, and a Perl-like 'foreach' statement that lets you iterate commands over a list of strings or nodes.

Zile 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).
