The -keymap option doesn't work

Using joe as a pager pre-processor with syntax highlighting

+1 for reloading a DEADJOE file. That would be very useful indeed.

Customizable ~/.joe directory

PS: I considered writing a macro for the <End> key to to handle horizontal scrolling the way I want. However, that doesn't seem to be possible, because there is no "left" variable (analogous to "top") that could be used to calculate the number of columns that need to be scrolled to reach a certain position. Of course, that would be another feature request, i.e. implementing a variable called "left" that returns the column number of the leftmost window column.

Horizontal scrolling in multiples of <n> columns

Great, thank you very much! Meanwhile I found out that xterm supports these attributes, too, but only when using true-type fonts (it does not seem to work with old-style bitmap fonts). I guess it's the same with rxvt since it is derived from xterm. Oh by the way: Sometimes I have the need to make tab characters (slightly) visible in certain types of files. Using strike-through would be a nice way to do that, using a syntax file with strike-through dark grey on black for tab characters.

Actually, this would be better, because it passes arguments as-is, including white space (so it would work with file names containing spaces and other special characters): xterm -e joe "$@"
