I had some trouble getting syntax highlighting, and a few other things, to
work at first and almost gave up on it. But I eventually got it to behave
itself. It's syntax highlighting even works well with c, python, etc., once
I tweaked a few color settings. I think I've finally found a favorite
editor. It's enough like ISPF where I feel right at home. The only thing I
haven't found yet is a syntax highlighting file for e-mail.
This editor discussion also inspired me to revisit a few other editors I
hadn't tried in a while. I'm using joe for this e-mail. I've ended up
spending most of the afternoon/evening tinkering with editors. See what
y'all started. :-)

May the source be with you. The only problem I had compiling it on Linux
was that I couldn't get the configure script to believe the --without-x
parameter. I had to end up installing some gnome dev packages to make
configure happy so I could get it compiled. That wouldn't have been quite
so annoying except I don't use Gnome, I use DWM.
