RE: Which editor for programming?

[Daniel Reuter]

Hello Stephan,

If you want something more lightweight than Emacs, and at the same time
something more easy to use than vim, you could check out jed. It does nice
syntax highlighting, automatic indentation and has a quite intuitive
interface (IMHO) with a ncurses-based menu.
