hbedit

A fullscreen console multiplatform text editor with built-in file manager

Attention! Since October 6, 2023 we are forced to use two-factor authentication to be able to update the repository. Because it's not suitable for me, I will probably use another place for projects. Maybe, https://gitflic.ru/, maybe, Sourceforge... Follow the news on my website, http://www.kresin.ru/

Внимание! С 6 октября 2023 года нас вынуждают использовать двухфакторную идентификацию для того, чтобы продолжать работать над проектами. Поскольку для меня это крайне неудобно, я, возможно, переведу проекты на другое место. Это может быть https://gitflic.ru/, Sourceforge, или что-то еще.

Usage

The Hbedit may be used as a class, as a library to incorporate it to your application. You just need to compile with -d__BUILT_IN and link the Tedit source files, except hbedit.prg, hbcommander.prg, fview.prg, and put following lines:

  oEdit := TEdit():New( Memoread("my.txt"), "my.txt" )
  oEdit:Edit()

to edit, for example, a file "my.txt".

Also, compiled and linked with hbedit.prg, it is a standalone editor.
