Description
Extensible, customizable GNU text editor
Long description
GNU Emacs is an extensible, customizable text editor—and more. At its core
is an interpreter for Emacs Lisp, a dialect of the Lisp programming
language with extensions to support text editing.
The features of GNU Emacs include: content-sensitive editing modes,
including syntax coloring, for a wide variety of file types including
plain text, source code, and HTML; complete built-in documentation,
including a tutorial for new users; full Unicode support for nearly all
human languages and their scripts; highly customizable, using Emacs Lisp
code or a graphical interface; a large number of extensions that add other
functionality, including a project planner, mail and news reader, debugger
interface, calendar, and more. Many of these extensions are distributed
with GNU Emacs; others are available separately.
