  • Oh My God ! Thank you ! Thank you ! Thank you ! I've just run the program once - but ... ... HERE IT IS ! IT'S BRIEF ! ALIVE AGAIN ! AT LAST ! Not some half-assed notepad clone with some different key-assignments and none of the functionality, no macros, no keyboard reassignment, no nothing. From my 30 second experience with this program it looks like this is the real thing. (Sob - You are a hero !)
  • Very configurable yet better defaults than Vim and Emacs. Cross-platform so you can use the same editor everywhere. Fantastic!
  • Doesn't build on raspberry pi make -C libmisc edthreads_win32.c In file included from edthreads_win32.c:41: Seems to be trying to build a lib under win32 ????

    numerous cross-platform issues have been resolved since 2020.
  • Back in 1992 I used Brief 3.1 form Borland but this version is amazing is one of the most powerful editors. The Macro capability have a lot of improvements. excellent.
  • Super :) I got tired to change the keybindings in severak editors, fixing the termcap and the code of *term all these years :D
  • Fast, configurable, BRiEF user experience since 1980s. The best choice if you switch from windows to linux must have console editor
