• vis

  4 3,521 8.5 C

  A vi-like editor based on Plan 9's structural regular expressions (by martanne)

  Project mention: Edit: A text-editor mixing vi and acme | news.ycombinator.com | 2021-03-01

  I mean it's a separate project so it has nothing to break "compatibility" with and it's made clear [1][2] the aim is to be different. Given the author is part of the suckless community I really don't think they care about attracting users either.

  I admire Vis but at the end of the day a text editor is just a tool. When the investment into changing out such a tool becomes worth it is entirely user dependent.

  It's not that I really have any clue about steam distribution...I can only guess from my naev install in steam. GPL licensed and the naev.x64 binary doesn't link to any steam specific library.

  Project mention: Learning vimscript vs lua | reddit.com/r/neovim | 2021-01-20

  A fully programmable Wayland Compositor

  Project mention: | Weekly Workshop 2021-01-01 | reddit.com/r/unixporn | 2020-12-31

  Could it—by any chance—be kiwmi? But it ain’t tiling (unless you make it so) & the fully manual thing also depends on the config. AFAIK that behaviour was explicitly mentioned only in its early history, as you can see e.g. in PR#1
