Can we have the tilde text editor please?

[0x6A7232 (Joshua Richards)]

I like using tilde, as it’s very similar to MS-DOS EDIT.COM style text editors

If I need something more advanced I can always call a different editor but this one’s nice, with the familiar File / Edit / View menu bar and standard keyboard shortcuts.

EDIT: Seems I got it installed and working using the following (CentOS 8 repo on author’s website):
curl -fsSL https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/gphalkes:/tilde/CentOS_8/home:gphalkes:tilde.repo | sudo pkexec tee /etc/yum.repos.d/tilde.repo

sudo dnf install tilde

NB: Three of the default Menu keys (Alt+F, S, and O, which open File, Search, and Options) are by default bound to the terminal manager. To access those menus, hit Shift+Alt+F, S, or O.

Although there seems to be recent changes as of 4 months ago, there hasn’t been a release in over 3 years:

If you would like to use it as you have been and monitor if new releases resume, then we can re-examine this request and you can also submit a package request on GitHub here:

OpenMandrivaAssociation/distribution

If you don’t have/want a GitHub account, let us know and we can create it for you.

Programs that can modify the contents of a system should really be actively maintained in order to be packaged. It’s a security thing.
