yaTPU
A light text editor in the spirit of DEC TPU/EVE: plain C, termios, no ncurses.
| Version | X-00-14 (per the archive) |
|---|---|
| Status | Maintained |
| Platforms | Linux (VT100/xterm terminal) |
| Licence | Apache License 2.0 |
| For whom | Lovers of the EDT/TPU keyboard layout on Linux. |
What it is
Buffers, not files; a single input path (LEARN, REMEMBER, the .tjl journal and crash recovery with -recover); a DO prompt with abbreviations; windows follow the terminal; help in the VMS .HLP format; messages like %TPU-E-NOTFOUND. Works with UTF-8. No undo, there is RESTORE. The keycode utility shows what a key sends and how TPU names it.
Why
The editor familiar from OpenVMS where there is no ncurses.
Quick start Build
cmake -S TPU -B build-tpu && cmake --build build-tpu
./build-tpu/tpu [-recover] [-nojournal] [-keys file] [file]
