editor

The goal of this project is to create a lightweight code editor written in C, that is optimized for C projects, is performant, and productive.

This is what it looks like editing its own source code:

TODO

• Command mode ctrl+T

  • Convert upper, lower, camel snake case automagically
  • Modify Settings (Remove shortcuts)

• Make vec faster (Push)

• Side bar for file manager (Ctrl+b)

  • Mouse Support in menus
  • File browser: Open Files

• Search and replace in file and whole folder

• Align defines handle comments

• Indent Selected using Tab (small bug with cursors)

• Shift tab work with spaces

• Undo / Redo

• Multiple Cursors
