h, and I personally didn't care about
perfect highlighting, so I went with PCRE.

I agree it's not useful beyond getting a ballpark estimate, esp
without taking into account external deps. The 10k figure
re included, and a single
`make` at the top level builds everything. As you point out,
unfortunately python (waf) is required to build termbox. I went with
termbox over ncurses as I vastly prefer its api, and the library
itself is cleaner. I'll see if the maintainer will merge a plain
Makefile.
ic on other editors:
vim: 430k
kakoune: 27k
nano: 25k
vis: 22k
mle: 10k
kilo: 1k
Naturally it's not perfect as it counts comments and blank lines etc.
But at least in that sense it is on the small side.

emacs-like, but it supports modes as well. I've us
