Great work, thank you. I was awaiting for something like this for a while. Thanks for sharing.
As a side note:
In the long term what I would really love to see - is Rust GUI for Neovim[1] (embedded library / service). Thus I would be able to both hack around my editor and get VIM's maturity and experience most of the times.

- Dewie 12y agoI don't get what a Rust GUI would give you, in this case?
- leonardinius 12y agoNothing besides convenience. As a rule of thumb I would love to have editor I find suiting my needs and ideally it would be easy to me to contribute/adjust it to my needs. Regarding [Neo]Vim - I don't think core is something I would touch a lot. Most likely UI/GUI stuff and plugins (vimscripts etc ..). Due to the nature of vimscripts I would prefer to hack around it in something like Python, Lua or Rust. My personal subjective judgement: - Disclaimer: I'm mostly Java, C#, Python developer - I find C++ codebase too hard to follow and understand. I like C, but it lacks syntax sugar etc... - I find Rust promising (hopefully it's something I will be able to read relatively easy and hopefully it would be easier to reason about,especially in regard to memory management).

- gchp 12y agoThanks! It's still very much a work-in-progress, but I like it so far. Plus its been really fun writing it.
