An editor that is small and simple to use but yet full of capabilities.
Highlights:

- Auto-detection of Latin-1, UTF-8 or UTF-16 input encoding.
- New: Works with dual-width Han fonts (xterm 120 + patch needed).
- Commands and input support for display and handling of code
values.
- Transparent handling of illegal UTF-8 sequences.
- Can edit UTF-8 text in non-UTF terminals.
- (Can, of course, also edit Latin-1 text in UTF-8 terminals.)
