Thanks for the review, blanu! I should clarify though: Diakonos does not work natively under Windows; only Cygwin. As well, it starts up alright under OSX, but the majority of keybindings do not work under OSX's terminal. As such, I must report that Diakonos unfortunately does not really run properly under OSX.

Nevertheless, I aim for it to be the most user-friendly console editor for Linux. :)
