GNU moe 1.14 released

[Antonio Diaz Diaz]

I am pleased to announce the release of GNU moe 1.14.

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.

The homepage is at http://www.gnu.org/software/moe/moe.html

The sources can be downloaded from http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/moe/ 
http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/moe/ or from your favorite GNU mirror.

This release is also GPG signed. You can download the signature by appending 
'.sig' to the URL. If the 'gpg --verify' command fails because you don't 
have the required public key, then run this command to import it:

Changes in version 1.14:

  * Block marking now follows cursor only in the buffer handle where 
marking was started, even when switching to another buffer handle for the 
same buffer.

  * Moe no longer processes backslash escapes in file names.

  * Search now provides the option '(D)elete' equivalent to 'replace with 
nothing'.

  * 'Read block' now reports "File is empty" or "File not found" instead of 
"File not found or empty".

  * 'Reformat paragraphs' now turns off highlighting if 'auto unmark' is on.

  * The new search sequence '\=<ch>' (equivalence class) has been added.

  * Icase (ignore case) now also ignores the case of characters in sets and 
equivalence classes.

  * Executable files (scripts) are now loaded with 'auto indent' on.

  * The command 'b' (scroll backwards leaving 1 line of context) has been 
added to the basic less emulation.

  * The scroll keys now work without the need of pressing the Alt key in 
read-only buffers.

  * The cursor is now allowed to remain at top or left positions when 
scrolling.

  * '<' is now shown in the status line to indicate that there are text 
columns at the left of the window.

  * 'Control-O K' (capitalize block) and the special replace sequence '\c' 
now capitalize only the first letter of each whitespace-separated word, not 
letters separated by punctuation (like an apostrophe).

  * Recursive load now ignores file names with extensions ".avi", ".docx", 
".mp3", ".mp4", ".mpg", and man pages ".[0-9]".

  * The UTF-8 decoder now converts some box drawing characters.

  * The variable MAKEINFO has been added to configure and Makefile.in.
