efte - Text editor
SYNOPSIS
efte [[options] files ...]
vefte [[options] files ...]
nefte [[options] files ...]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the efte.
This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution (but may be used by others), because the original program does not have
a manual page. Instead, it has documentation in html format; see below.
efte is a powerful text editor which closely resembles Borlands programming editors for M$-DOS, but is far more flexible and configurable.
OPTIONS
efte uses a command line syntax, which is a little bit different from most of Debian GNU/Linux apps.
-h -? --help
Help on command line options.
-! Ignore any external configuration file and use internal configuration.
-l<line>[,<column>]
Go to line (and column) in next file on command line.
-#<line>[<,column>]
Same as -l. Do not use this option.
-m[<mode>]
Set mode for next files to <mode>. If just plain -m, then use default mode.
-C[<.cnf>]
Use specified configuration file (compiled). Plain -C does the same as -!.
-D[<.dsk>]
Load/save desktop from file <.dsk>. If no argument, disable desktop load/save.
-H[<.his>]
Load/save history from file <.his>. If no argument, disable history load/save.
-T<tagfile>
Load 'tagfile' at startup.
-t<tag>
Lookup tag 'tag' and display file containing it.
-- The rest of the arguments are not options, but filenames.
-+ The next argument is not an option even if starting with a '-'. Useful when loading files that begin with a -.
-noxmb Do not use XMB functions in xefte - useful if you have incorrect locales and you want to use just english fonts.
-font Select XWindow font to use with xefte. See VIOFONT also.
ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES
This is list of variable which might change behavior of some internals of efte.
VIOFONT - select font used by xefte
ISOCONSOLE - when set, vefte is usign ascii symbols to draw tables. This is useful when iso latin charset is used on console.
