GNU moe is a console text editor for ISO-8859 and ASCII character encodings. 
It has a modeless, user-friendly interface, online help, multiple windows, 
global search/replace (on all buffers at once), block operations, automatic 
indentation, word wrapping, file name completion, directory browser, 
duplicate removal from prompt histories, delimiter matching, text conversion 
from/to UTF-8, romanization, etc. The file size, line length, number of 
buffers, and undo/redo capability are only limited by the amount of memory 
available and the size of the address space of your machine.

Moe respects your work. By default it won't automatically add, change, or 
remove a single byte in your files. Moe is a WYTIWYG (what you type is what 
you get) editor.

Moe can easily edit thousands of files at the same time.

Moe uses ISO-8859-15 instead of Unicode (ISO 10646) because an 8-bit 
character set (combined with romanization if needed) can convey meaning 
safely and more efficiently than Unicode can.

Changes in this version:

  * The moe configuration file 'moerc' has been renamed to 'moe.conf'. Moe 
now looks for the configuration file in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/moe.conf instead of 
$HOME/.moerc. (XDG_CONFIG_HOME defaults to $HOME/.config).

  * Minimum screen height has been increased to 25 lines because some help 
screens contain 24 lines of text plus the status line.

  * The short name '-W' has been assigned to the option '--no-word-wrap'.

  * Start always with one window; put extra files in orphaned buffers. 
(Option '-1, --orphan' is no longer needed).

  * In regular expressions, allow the first ']' of a set to be the starting 
character of a range.

  * A line is again considered blank if it is empty or if it only contains 
whitespace characters (including no-break space).

  * The command 'go to matching delimiter' now recognizes '«' and '»'.

  * The command 'decode base64' is now much faster for large blocks of 
data. (About 300 times faster for 4 MB of base64 data).

  * The command 'reformat paragraph' now shows feedback ("reformatting...") 
and collapses also no-break spaces.

  * The command 'reformat paragraphs in block' now removes whitespace from 
blank lines between paragraphs.

  * Some invalid escape sequences in search and replace strings are now 
detected earlier.

  * Replacing is now faster for replacement strings with escape sequences 
for special characters.

  * Moe now accepts the escape sequences '\uhhhh' and '\Uhhhhhhhh' 
(universal-character-name) to either search or insert in the buffer the 
corresponding ISO 10646 character coded in UTF-8.

  * Moe now accepts the escape sequence '\dddd' (decimal code 'ddd') like 
GNU sed to either search or insert in the buffer the corresponding 
ISO-8859-15 character.

  * The limit for the right margin has been increased from 1000 to INT_MAX 
/ 2. A value of 0 now sets the right margin to the maximum possible value.

  * After changing the value of a numerical option in the options menu, moe 
now shows the old and new value of the option.

  * Recursive load now ignores file names with extensions ".lzma", ".pnm", 
".tiff", ".zst", ".tzst".

  * Several fixes and improvements have been made to the manual.
