Previously, block cursors were always drawn manually as part of the selection/highlight rendering, which prevented terminal cursor effects (like cursor trails) from working. This change makes block cursors behave like bar/underline cursors by using the terminal's real cursor for the primary selection. - Skip rendering primary cursor in block mode when terminal is focused - Let terminal handle primary cursor rendering for all cursor types - Simplify cursor method to return actual cursor kind when focused This allows terminal-based cursor effects to work with block cursors while maintaining proper cursor visibility when the terminal is unfocused. |

README.md
A Kakoune / Neovim inspired editor, written in Rust.
The editing model is very heavily based on Kakoune; during development I found myself agreeing with most of Kakoune's design decisions.
For more information, see the website or documentation.
All shortcuts/keymaps can be found in the documentation on the website.
Features
- Vim-like modal editing
- Multiple selections
- Built-in language server support
- Smart, incremental syntax highlighting and code editing via tree-sitter
Although it's primarily a terminal-based editor, I am interested in exploring a custom renderer (similar to Emacs) using wgpu or skulpin.
Note: Only certain languages have indentation definitions at the moment. Check
runtime/queries/<lang>/
for indents.scm
.
