A lightweight cli text editor written in C
- Doesn't support UTF-8, meaning no windows terminal support
- Compiling from Makefile is just weird
- Line numbers
- Soft indent
- Auto indent (setting)
- Auto add brackets (setting)
- Hard/soft line wrap
- Use ncurses?
- Copy and paste
- Multiple buffers
- Create command system like vim
:
mode - More keymaps
- Configuration file to read from
- Organize project into files
- Better highlighting system (LSP?)
- Write tests?
- Better github action stuff
I used this guide as a starting point, and am expanding off it. This project gave me a very simple program that displays text, allows for input, and moves the cursor. I hope to expand this project into something (fairly) useable that could possibly help someone somewhere if they are crazy enough to use it.
