This looks cool; kind of like modern Vim/Emacs hybrid. I especially like the filename search, which is lacking in Atom.

- shalabhc 10y agoThank you. Yes it's kind of like a modernized Emacs with a very nice API in Lua. I haven't used Vim so can't say about the similarity there but it does have a Vim mode. Do you mean the normal file browser or the recursive search (`ctrl_s`)? I did find Atom a bit lacking for general quick file browsing as well as previewing and usability of things like replace commands.
- riscy 10y agoI mean the ability to list all files recursively in a buffer and then search that buffer, something Emacs got right.
- shalabhc 10y agoAh yes - I find that really useful too! Do you know how Emacs handles too many recursive listings? Howl just truncates the search after 3 seconds and I'm wondering if there's something better we can do.
