# DWED
Text file editor and IDE for MS-DOS and 8086/88 CPU (IBM XT-grade PC) designed in modern style.
Main features:
* Support files with size over 64kb (~300kb conventional, or up to 2gb swap)
* Dont require DPMI-server or 80286 CPU, but support huge swap-file (could be placed on ramdisk)
* Support basic syntax highlight (C/C++/C--, Pascal, Basic, Assembler, Xml/Html, text files etc)
* Support multiple file editing at the same time
* Support unix-like text files for open
* Support Long File Names (LFN)
* Support internal clipboard (size up to 32kb)
* Support Windows Clipboard (you can use it with DosBox-X)
* Support user's color scheme (via config-file)
* Support user's shell script running by hotkeys **F5**, **F8**, **F9**.
* You can disable highlight and receive good speed with XT.
* Support mouseRestrictions:
* This software is writen in Turbo Pascal, so string length is limited to 255 chars.
* DWED don't parse file content in the same way, as compilers - so, some time syntax highlight can fail (be wrong). I know it. But it is better then nothing.
* No Undo/Redo functionality. The reason is the same as why i dont build AST for syntax highlight - here is no memory/CPU speed for it.Here is small review/intro on FreeDOS channel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zFomGoKdlQ
# How to run and use
Use:C:\DWED\dwed.exe filename1 .. filenameN
Use key **F1** to get more documentation (hotkeys, tips etc). I don't want write documentation and put all knowledge to buildin help.
