Description: powerful clone of the vi/ex text editor (without X11 support)
 This package contains Elvis compiled without X11 support.  If you want
 to use Elvis' X11 interface then install the package elvis instead.

 .
 Elvis is a clone of vi/ex, the standard UNIX editor. It supports
 nearly all of the vi/ex commands, in both visual mode and ex mode.
 Elvis adds support for multiple files, multiple windows, a variety of
 display modes (including syntax highlighting, man, tex, html and
 hex), an optional X11 user interface (see elvis-x11), on-line help,
 folding, spell checking, new options, auto commands, regions, enhanced
 tags, printing, aliases and an improved :map command.
 .
 Like vi/ex, Elvis stores most of the text in a temporary file,
 instead of RAM. This allows it to edit files that are too large to
 fit in a single process' data space.
 Also, the edit buffer can survive a power failure or crash.

 Wie vi/ex speichert Elvis den größten Teil des Texts in einer temporären
 Datei statt im RAM. Dadurch kann man Dateien editieren, die zu groß für
 den Arbeitsspeicher eines einzelnen Prozesses sind.
 Außerdem kann der Editor-Puffer Stromausfälle und Abstürze überleben.
