DESCRIPTION

12       About  The mino editor Mino is a GNU software, part of the GnuDOS pack‐
13       age.  Mino is a text file  editor  for  use  with  the  GNU/Linux  con‐
14       sole/xterm. The idea was to provide a text editor that is user friendly
15       and easy to use for those who came from DOS land. Having accustomed  to
16       SHIFT  selecting text, using CTRL-shortcut keys and so on makes it hard
17       for a regular Joe to dive in head first into GNU syntax. Mino  provides
18       multi-level  experience, the level of complexity can be adjusted by the
19       user: you want to use DOS-keys with a few basic GNU ones? you  want  to
20       go with the full power of the GNU system? All are options that are pro‐
21       vided by the six levels of experience of Mino:
22
23         1- Newbie: All DOS shortcut keys, no GNU keys yet
24         2- Novice: DOS shortcut keys, some of which are replaced with GNU's
25         3- Intermediate: DOS keys with a few more replaced with GNU keys
26         4- ِAdvanced: ... And more GNU keys in
27         5- ِExpert: Very few DOS keys, most are GNU keys
28         6- ِVeteran: Only GNU keys, no DOS-like keys
29
30       You start with level 1 by default.  To set your level,  call  the  mino
31       with '--levelX' or '-lX' options,
32
33       Which keys are defined for which level?
34       =======================================
35       There is a table showing the DOS-like key combinations along with their
36       respective GNU key bindings in the  README  file  installed  with  this
37       package.   To read more about the levels of experience and the keybind‐
38       ings, please refer to the README file, accessible from the Help menu in
39       mino.
