Patch-To: xvi: Volume 33, Issue 10-27
These are some updates to the source release of the xvi editor which
was posted last October. The most significant changes are:
+ xterm/vt100 screen updating problems should now be fixed.
+ Compiling on Xenix, System V or similar flavours of Unix should
now be much easier.
+ The fixed limit on line length of input files is removed.
+ The line number information given in each window's status line
can optionally be updated continuously as the cursor is moved up
or down within the buffer. This option is enabled with the
command
:se iu=continuous
It works well on PC's, but is not recommended for serial
terminals or other slow displays.
+ PostScript versions of the documents are provided.
These patches, given the source for version 2.15, will generate
version 2.19.
Please let us know of any problems.
Regards,
Chris & John Downey
