Hi, Just FYI: this also builds/runs fine on aarch64.

This source code does need some modification, otherwise an error will be reported. Please modify line 555 of src / easyedit-1.5.2 / ee.c in your clone directory to modify it to: "For (counter = 1; counter <24; counter ++)" Then execute make and make install in this directory and you can use it.

As anonymous points out, the default build does not link against the system-provided ncurses. To fix, just replace the lines with create.make and make in the build() function in PKGBUILD by: gcc -o ee -DHAS_UNISTD -DHAS_STDLIB -DHAS_CTYPE -DHAS_SYS_IOCTL -DHAS_SYS_WAIT -DSLCT_HDR ee.c -lcurses

This uses the original Makefile, which doesn't give very good results on any linux system I've tried (spurious border characters and occasional glitches). Suggest changing to something more like the old Debian Makefile, which uses the distro ncurses instead. I've created a pastebin of a working Makefile (without comments). Give it a shot and see what think: http://aur.pastebin.com/download.php?i=VzEcJEhc
