Juhani Krekelä 7e5a816749 Refactor movement code in editor(1).
Firstly, lots of places in editor(1) would do a move from (x₀,y₀) to
(x,y) by first moving to (x,y₀) or (x₀,y) and only then (x,y). If the
intermediate positions were not valid cursor positions, this might cause
out of bounds access. Categorically fixed this by removing functions for
moving only horizontally or only vertically.

Secondly, editor_select_set() would set the column before setting the
line. Since the code for setting the column accesses the currently set
line at the new cursor position, it might cause out of bounds access
even on valid cursor positions. Fixed this by swapping the order in
which column and row are set.

Thirdly, the order of arguments passed to row_column_smallest() and
row_column_biggest() was wrong, with column being passed before the row,
even though they were defined the other way. However, this did not
result in out of bounds memory accesses due to the parameters to
editor_cursor_set() also being swapped at relevant callsites.

Finally, the boundary condition for control-down was off by one.

The Sortix Operating System
===========================

Sortix is a small self-hosting operating-system aiming to be a clean and modern
POSIX implementation.  It is a hobbyist operating system written from scratch
with its own base system, including kernel and standard library, as well as
ports of third party software.  It has a straightforward installer and can be
developed under itself.  Releases come with the source code in /src, ready for
tinkering.

It has been in development since 2011 by a single developer and contributors.
Though the system is stable and capable right now, it is still early in
development, and a number of crucial features haven't been made yet.  Releases
are made yearly and future releases will add features such as networking, SMP,
and USB that were skipped in favor of becoming self-hosting now.

Documentation
-------------

The system is documented as manual pages.  Introductory system usage is covered
in the user-guide(7) manual page.

Building Sortix
---------------

Development of Sortix under itself is covered in development(7).

Development from another operating system is covered in cross-development(7).

You can view the cross-development(7) manual page with this command:

  man share/man/man7/cross-development.7
