Minimum Profit(1) Minimum Profit(1)NAMEmp-5 - Minimum Profit Editor, a text editor for programmers
SYNOPSISmp-5 [options] [+NNN] [file [file...]]
DESCRIPTION
Minimum Profit (mp) is a text editor for programmers. Among its fea‐
tures are the following:
· Fully scriptable using a C-like scripting language.
· Unlimited undo levels.
· Complete Unicode support.
· Multiple files can be edited at the same time and blocks copied
and pasted among them.
· Syntax highlighting for many popular languages / file formats:
C, C++, Perl, Shell Scripts, Ruby, Php, Python, HTML...
· Creative use of tags: tags created by the external utility
ctags are used to move instantaneously to functions or vari‐
ables inside your current source tree. Tags are visually high‐
lighted (underlined), and symbol completion can be triggered to
avoid typing your own function names over and over.
· Intelligent help system: pressing F1 over any word of a text
being edited triggers the underlying system help (calling man
when editing C or Shell files, perldoc with Perl, ri on Ruby,
winhelp on MS Windows...).
· Understandable interface: drop-down menus, reasonable default
key bindings.
· Configurable keys, menus and colors.
· Text templates can be easily defined / accessed.
· Multiplatform: Console/curses, Qt4, GTK+, KDE4, MS Windows.
· Automatic indentation, word wrapping, internal grep, learning /
repeating functions.
· Spellchecking support (via the ispell package).
· Multilingual.
· Password-protected, encrypted text files (using the ARCFOUR
algorithm).
· It helps you abandon vi, emacs and other six-legged freaks def‐
initely.
