A version of Sam for X with scalable font support no Plan 9 dependencies: http://GitHub.com/deadpixi/sam


Ninth Edition Unix came with an innovative editor called sam, that combined an ed-like command language with a powerful mouse-and-menu user interface. Perhaps its most interesting innovation was its use of structural regular expressions.

In the 1980s, it was reworked to use the X Window System. This version is a modern update of that version, supporting colors, 64-bit architectures, keyboard shortcuts, tab expansion, and other niceties.
