Charm

Charm is a light-weight terminal based editor for editing MT (and other) files. It is a command line editor based on the kilo editor by Salvatore Sanfilippo aka antirez.

Features

• Light-weight design - it's fast
• Easy to use
• Syntax highlighting (see supported for more info)
• Incremental Search

Usage

If you are familiar with vi you are familiar with charm. You could probably use vimtutor to learn it. One difference is begginign and end of line which are H and L respectivley. Please note that $ and 0 still work.

## Customisation

The init file is located at $HOME/.charm.mt. Below is an example init file. Init files are written in MT as charm has the full VM built in. If there is an error in your init file all of the colors in the editor will turn green. To debug this just run the init file as you would any other MT file.

// Init file for charm
