NAME
FLED - Fullscreen Lua EDitor
SYNOPSIS
fled
fled file
DESCRIPTION
fled is the default text editor of the Monolith system, superseding ed(1) and superseded by vled(1). fled is a visual text editor inspired by the real-world editor vim while also remaining similar to ed. Perhaps the most appealing attribute of fled is its ability to easily switch between multiple loaded buffers in just a few keystrokes.
Upon launching fled, you will be presented with a black screen, with a red : prompt in the bottom left-hand corner, similar to less(1). This prompt will accept certain commands, listed here. Note that the short form is usually preferred.
Options mandatory for long commands are mandatory for short commands too.
