SVED, THE SVARDOS EDITOR
### WHAT IS IT ###############################################################
Sved is the default editor that comes with SvarDOS. Sved is not meant to be a
full-featured text editor, it is designed for basic editing of configuration
files and such. On the pro side, Sved has a very low memory footprint and
is only a couple of kilobytes big, which makes it a good fit for bootdisks or
systems with extremely limited ressources.
- runs comfortably on a 8086-class PC with 256 KiB of RAM
- supports color and monochrome video modes
- supports extended text modes like 80x43, 80x50...
- multilingual UI
- low disk footprint (8 KiB)
- loads files larger than 64 KiB
- no limit on line lengths
- can load up to 10 files simulteanously
- handles CR/LF and LF line endings (+can convert between the two)
What Sved does NOT have:
- mouse support
- an integrated file browser
- copy/paste support
