LE is a text editor which appears something like the Norton Editor, but has many additional features:
* rectangle select/copy/paste (block type is switchable)
* filtering block contents through an external program
* linear multilevel undo/redo
* customizable menus
* color syntax highlighting (using regular expressions in an external file)
* handles UTF-8 characters, based on locale settings
* customizable keymaps for different terminal types (associating either literal strings or terminfo capability names)
* hexadecimal editing mode
* editing of mmap'd files or devices in replace mode
* frame drawing mode (first seen in Lexicon)
* file selection box (inspired by Turbo C)
* built-in postfix calculator.

It uses ncurses for display, mouse and part of the keyboard handling. The application has a built-in table of key assignments for xterm, rxvt and some less familiar terminal types.
