An implementation of Gnu Emacs for new users '''Author:''' Peter Heslin '''Homepage:''' http://www.dur.ac.uk/p.j.heslin/Software/Emacs/Easymacs/index.php '''Family:''' EmacsFamily '''Platform:''' Linux, OS/X, Windows '''License:''' Open Source * All of the usual features of an editor: undo, redo, search and replace, intelligent indentation and wrapping. * There are many convenient ways of entering non-ASCII text, including Unicode and various exotic encodings. * Spell-checking as you type. This distinguishes between true misspellings and words which are used more than once in a file, and so are likely to be correct but unknown. You can correct misspellings with a single keystroke (F8). * Most file-types define syntax-sensitive highlighting and folding (F7). * Rectangular selection of text, which can be also used to insert the same text in many columns (Ctrl-Return). * Visible, persistent bookmarks to mark particular lines in a file (Alt-F2). * You can search for text in multiple files in a given folder or set of subfolders (Ctrl-Shtf-F9). The output displays a menu of the lines in the different files that match a your pattern, and you can jump from one to the next with a single keystroke (F10 or Alt-`). * Auto-completion of words based on the content of other open files (F5), or on a dictionary (Shft-F8). * Multiple cut and paste clipboards (just hit Ctrl-number before cutting, copying or pasting, and the commands will use the clipboard numbered 0-9 for that operation). * History of clipboard contents: you can browse through the past contents of the clipboard and insert any one of the previous contents (Shft-Ctrl-V). * Keyboard macros that let you record (Alt-Shft-F5) and play back (Alt-F5) a series of keystrokes, to ease repetitive tasks. * You can look up the word at the cursor in dictionaries and thesauri with a single keystroke (Alt-F8). * You can easily switch between open files via a menu (F9), or other quick shortcuts (Shft-F9, Ctrl-F9). There is also a menu of recently opened files (Alt-Shft-F1). * There is a full command shell for manipulating files and running commands. (Alt-F9). * html link at top of this page is wrong. Easymacs is now at http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Easymacs and Sourceforge page for downloading is http://sourceforge.net/projects/easymacs/ '''Screenshot:'''
