A list of desired features
--------------------------
For the future (no targeted version, catch-all)
Vague musings:
- FriBidi support?
- Port to DJGPP?
- Make matching bracket searches sophisticated enough to skip over
brackets inside comments?
- Allow indentation of marked text by spaces as well as tabs?

- Allow conversion between different character sets. Maybe use glib's
iconv() if the system's iconv() is inadequate, since we already use
glib's vsnprintf() if the system lacks vsnprintf()?
- Allow setting marks (saved positions, not to be confused with the mark
set via Ctrl-^) at various lines and/or columns in the buffer, and
allow movement between them with a single keystroke?
- Allow searching for and replacing newlines?
See also https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?47053.
- New regression framework built on expect?
- Add the ability to move to different lines of the screen with a single
keystroke, e.g. M-` (M-~) to go to the top line, M-& (M-7) to go to
the center line, and M-' (M-") to go to the last line?
Somewhat urgent:
- Allow text searches in the help viewer.
See https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?28994.
- Detect when text is being pasted, so that we can handle it faster.
See https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?40060.
- Allow color syntaxes to apply to more than just color, so that we can
e.g. specify a different alternate spell checker depending on which
file type we have open.
- Allow setting marks (saved positions, not to be confused with the mark
set via Ctrl-^) at various lines and/or columns in the buffer, and
allow movement between them with a single keystroke? (We're running
out of keystrokes, though.)
- Allow searching for and replacing newlines.
For version 2.6:
- New regression framework built on expect.
- Allow text searches in the help viewer.
- Add the ability to move to different lines of the screen with a single
keystroke, e.g. M-` (M-~) to go to the top line, M-& (M-7) to go to
the center line, and M-' (M-") to go to the last line.
- Detect when we're pasting text, so that we can handle it differently
(i.e. faster than currently with screen redraws).
- Allow piping marked text to an external command and replacing it with
the command's output (as the internal spell checker already does with
the "spell" command)?
the command's output -- that is: generalize the spell-check flow.

For version 2.4:
- Handle window resizes better. After we've resized, we should stay
