Damn. I chose suplemon to have Windows support but since I don't have a Windows computer, I couldn't test. No such support is planned (richrd/suplemon#101). I'll look into a different (actually cross-platform) editor.

[psychedel]

How can I help?
I have Windows 10, Windows bash (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/commandline/wsl/about)
mingw, some experience with Python.
And time/will to help such great project :)
But I found it 5 mins ago - so will check the internals.

Thanks for the interest! I was thinking of doing something like https://wiki.wxpython.org/WxHowtoSmallEditor, not entirely sure yet of what editor (if you have any suggestion that would be great). Essentially the edit command, who's source is located at lib/lib/edit.py imports suplemon in the case that an editor is not set (and that import is what's raising the error).

I'm more from the hardware world (FPGAs, etc.) - so no big experience with console editors and special features for the console applications... I saw that Kaa is multiplatform - https://github.com/kaaedit/kaa
But Python 3.3 or later

Cygwin environment on Windows platform is not supported at this time, but will be tested after they provide Python 3.3 package.

I'll keep it on my radar but not really having Windows support and less support for *NIX systems (w/o Python3) makes it a no for me. On the other hand, wxEditor doesn't really have all the features nano has (which is what this was meant to replace).

https://github.com/jonathanslenders/pyvim/ is an option; using the awesome prompt_toolkit

[psychedel]

Yep, it works, at least minimum of it

[lschumm]

Awesome, I'll get to integration ASAP

Implemented in db7383b! Very beta (doesn't accept files yet: issue #48 ) but basic implementation is there! Thanks @orionbytes for notifying me that my cross-platform shell was not in fact cross-platform 😃!
