Vim - the ubiquitous text editor
Vim is a highly configurable text editor built to make creating and
changing any kind of text very efficient.
It is included as "vi" with most UNIX systems and with Apple OS X.
Vim is rock stable and is continuously being developed to become even better.
Among its features are:
- persistent, multi-level undo tree
- extensive plugin system
- support for hundreds of programming languages and file formats
- powerful search and replace
- integrates with many tools

new :defer command
[2022-09-10]
Cleaning up after creating a file or directory can easily be forgotten.
To make it easier the :defer command has been added.
It works like it does in the Go language.

This is especially useful in tests, where temp files need to be cleaned up.
Read about it in the help file. (Bram Moolenaar)
Virtual text has been implemented

You can read about it in the help. (Bram Moolenaar)

SelX : A Rainbow of Vim selection/highlighting & search |
 |
(14/01/2023) I discovered that defining the dummy version of selx#Statusline() - see change on 26/04/2020 above - actually has the effect of bringing-in and parsing the SelX autoload code! I think this is a bug in vim but is (apparently) expected behaviour. So I have now removed this dummy function and replaced it with the function g:SelxStatusline(). Using this wrapper function will ensure that the autoload c... - Richard Bentley-Green |
