It is a tremendous effort of Bram Moolenaar and the vim contributors to maintain this codebase that can be configured in uncountable ways, just looking at the pre-configured feature sets that exist lead to tiny, small, normal, big and huge. As far as i know it has real support for languages of the world, which is a different thing than being UTF-8 all through the engine. (But i think emacs is better here, i see one markable emacs developer taking care on the Unicode list, regarding real BiDi support, for example.) With all my sympathy for pico at first and for long, then mg / ee / nano / jupp etc., and with my repeated tries to switch over to vile, in the last two decades i always came back home to vim, for the one thing or the other. Two endless loops in all this time. I only use the smallest thinkable subsets of features, though. (Only lumberjack-style editing here, anyway.) --steffen | |Der Kragenbaer, The moon bear, |der holt sich munter he cheerfully and one by one |einen nach dem anderen runter wa.ks himself off |(By Robert Gernhardt)
