# tte
tte (tiny text editor) is a terminal based text editor written in C from scratch, trying to be very minimalistic and dependency independent (it's not even using **curses**).
This project was mainly created for educational purposes, so is very commented!
Thanks to [antirez](http://antirez.com) for inspiring me with his project `kilo` and [Jeremy Ruten](https://twitter.com/yjerem) for his tutorials.
## Installation
### Compiling
```
git clone https://github.com/GrenderG/tte.git
cd tte/
make install
```
### Downloading executable
Download it from [here](https://github.com/GrenderG/tte/releases/latest), then
```
sudo mv tte /usr/local/bin/
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/tte
```
## Usage
```
tte [file_name]
tte -h | --help
tte -v | --version
```
If you are planning to use special characters like (á, é, í, ó, ú, ¡, ¿, ...) you must use `ISO 8859-1` encoding in your terminal. See [this issue](https://github.com/GrenderG/tte/issues/2) for more info.
