a text editor
Project description
babi
a text editor, eventually...
why is it called babi?
I usually use the text editor nano, frequently I typo this. on a qwerty
keyboard, when the right hand is shifted left by one, nano becomes babi.
quitting babi
currently you can quit babi by using ^X (or ^C which triggers a
backtrace).
demos
not much works yet, here's a few things
color test (babi --color-test)
this is just to demo color support, this test mode will probably be deleted eventually. it uses a little trick to invert foreground and background to get all of the color combinations. there's one additional color not in this grid which is the "inverted default"
file view
this opens the file, displays it, and can be edited in some ways and can save!
movement is currently enabled through the arrow keys, home + ^A, end + ^E,
and some key combinations are detected. unknown keys are displayed as errors
in the status bar. babi will scroll if the cursor goes off screen either from
resize events or from movement. babi can edit multiple files. babi has a
command mode (so you can quit it like vim :q!).
