I am terrible sorry. I want to make aeditor crossplatform. 

aeditor 0.x was only for ncurses.. a tui interface.
aeditor 1.x was only for fox.. a gui interface.

I want aeditor 2.x to become both tui and gui.
but right now its only for ncursesw (notice the w suffix.. it means
widechar support).

Im right now working on importing my old syntax coloring code
from aeditor 1.x into aeditor 2.x.  Hopefully I can accomplish this
before this weekend ends.

Then I can look into what it will take to get it running
on windows.  However I cannot compile binaries for windows,
so if anyone knows how to do this.. please contact me :-)
