Have the status line show the number of the current selection out of the total in the file. Right now, the `# sels` shows how many selections you have in the current buffer, but this shows the (1-based) index at which which one your primary cursor is on in the current buffer, i.e. `3/6 sels`, then if you press `)`, it would say `4/6` sels etc. This is very helpful when multiple selections are spread out beyond a single view to orient oneself with the current selections. |

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
.
