Check out the accompanying tutorial

... How to build a text editor with Python and curses, which walks you through series of fifteen incremental coding problems concluding in a minimal text editor.

Credits

Many thanks to the following people and projects for sharing their great work, upon which a lot of this was based!

  • Many thanks to Pavel Spirhanzl and Alexandre Pajak for their keen eyes in identifying bugs in early versions.
  • Gary Bernhardt's Text Editor From Scratch screencast.
  • Anthony Sottile's babi.
  • nano source.
  • Emacs source. In my opinion, the best way to explore the source is through Emacs' built-in help commands.
