VID stands for VI Distributed. It's a distributed ncurses editor. Roughly speaking, multiple users can edit the same file at the same time. Exclusion mechanism with '1 line' as granularity. Token based algorithm for line/file/saving locking. VID isn't polished, it was a small student project. If you like it and want to improve it you can send patches to . There is some documentation (in French) in the doc directory. Comments are in French as well... ^^ Mikael
