Minimum Profit 3.3.7 - A programmer's text editor.

About:
Minimum Profit (mp) is a programmer's text editor. It features small memory
and disk requirements, syntax highlighting, context-sensitive help for the
source code being edited, multiple simultaneous file editing, ctags
support, word wrapping, and more. It can be compiled for Linux / Unix
(console), GTK, and MS Windows.

Features

* 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, SQL, Python, HTML...
* Creative use of tags: tags created by the external utility ctags are
used to move instantaneously to functions or variables inside your
current source tree. Tags are visually highlighted (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, GTK+ (1.2 and 2.0), MS Windows.
* Automatic indentation, word wrapping, internal grep, learning /
repeating functions.
* Search and replace using plain text or regular expressions (including
a special function to replace text on all open files).
* Small memory footprint.
* Multilingual.
* Password-protected, encrypted text files (using the ARCFOUR algorithm).
* It helps you abandon vi, emacs and other six-legged freaks definitely.
* Awesome easter egg.
