 Open source Linux console editor using ncurses

 Platform: Linux, Windows (using PDCurses)
 License:  GPL

JX is an easy-to-use console-based text editor distributed under the GPL license. It tries to be consistent with GUI text editors, and uses the familiar keyboard shortcuts: CTRL-C to copy, CTRL-Z to undo, etc..

JX was originally designed for Linux. However, as JX is based on the CURSES library, it is portable to any system with one installed. The current version runs on Linux with GNU NCURSES and on Windows with PDCurses.

Note: development ceased in 2008
