  • Text editor written in bash
  • Well what exactly is the point
* Proof of concept than a good editor * See what I mean * Only 230 lines of bash script

  • First open, looks like any terminal editor
* A bit funky to work with but it's interesting * Modal editor

* i insert line and edit * b insert a new line * e to edit line * Invisble cursor * a append to line * enter to end line

* arrow keys to move

* c delete contents * d delete line * Delete line 0

* w write to file * f set target file * q to quit

* l to load in file

  • Editor released less than 2 weeks ago
* Much much better/complete options * Parts of vim and emacs you like * What it shows is that building a text editor is very possible * Maybe vim isn't perfect/maybe emacs isn't * You have programming talent * Well just make something yourself * It can be configured exactly the way you want * Great thing about programming * Make thing yourself
