Hi
I'm pleased to announce a new version of the vis editor, combining modal
editing with built-in support for multiple selections, structural regular
expressions and Lua scripting capabilities.
https://www.brain-dump.org/projects/vis/vis-0.6.tar.gz
Changes include:
- bounded time syntax highlighting using the `:set redrawtime` option
- support optional count for sam's text commands e.g. `:i3/-/`
- make `<C-n>` in visual mode match next occurence of existing selection
- warn when attempting to write to an existing file
- improved file change detection based on inode instead of path information
- fix file saves with modifications in file pre-save events
- fix save on file systems without `fsync(2)` support on directory descriptors
- do not unlink `file~` when saving `file`
- introduce distinct `vis-menu(1)` exit codes
- modify Lua package.path to include <plugin>/init.lua
- performance improvements for the HTML, XML and YAML lexers
- new Julia and Elm lexers, better defaults for standard text lexer
- support optional exit status in `:q` and `:qall` commands
- better temporary file creation using `mkstemp(2)`
- performance improvements in highlight matching parentheses
- improved behavior of `^` and `$` in searches and looping commands
- improved search wrap around behavior
- new `:set layout` option to specify window orientation
- improved filetype detection by matching known filenames exactly
- support DragonFly BSD in configure script
- better manual page, fixed warnings
- removed `gp`, `gP`, `gq`
- implement `g~`, `gu` and `gU` using `tr(1)`, they are no longer operators
- removed `v` and `V` in operator pending mode
- avoid crash if `$TERM` is unset
- keep selections after `:>` command
- normalize selections after `:` command execution
- show pending input queue content in status bar
- make `r<Enter>` insert a new line
- new `:set loadmethod` option, valid values are `read`, `mmap` or `auto`
- always apply `:|` command to existing selections
- fix terminal UI on serial console
- various code cleanups, removal of VLA
- <Escape> resets count, if applicable
- fix `:X` and `:Y` commands which were interchanged
- don't strip executables by default, provide install-strip target
