ChiiEdit is a basic text editor written in C without relying on any libraries.
To install locally into ~/usr/local/bin:
./build.sh
This will place ChiiEdit in ~/usr/local/bin. You can then add it to your PATH:
export PATH="${PATH}":/home/"${USER}"/usr/local/bin
To install the manual autotools way:
autoreconf -iv
./configure
make
make install
ChiiEdit can be executed by itself to start creating a file from scratch.
To modify a file, or create a new one, simply pass it a filename:
ChiiEdit foo.txt
