rut

A basic text editor, written in Rust (hence the name).

Why, though?

I just wanted a basic TUI text editor (like Nano) that could:

  • Be used with all major platforms (Linux, Windows, MacOS) by using cross-compatible libraries
  • Have the features I miss from more-advanced editors (like multi-cursor in Sublime/VSCode)
  • Have great support for third-party plugins
  • Be approachable to new terminal users (I'm looking at you, Vim)

Some more explanation

Largely speaking, this is a project to test my ability to make an actually somewhat-practical application, and it is basically my first "real" foray into UI. I also am doing a collaborative project for the first time.

Note

This README was written in rut. :)

  • Cursor skips empty lines when pressing the down arrow

    Cursor skips empty lines when pressing the down arrow

    Now that the down key is implemented, something is causing the cursor to skip an extra line if the next one is empty. This happens whenever the cursor is not at X-position 0. I assume this is caused by counting the '\n' as the end of the line, rather than the character directly preceding it.

  • Cursor cannot move past last character in a file that does not end in a line break

    Cursor cannot move past last character in a file that does not end in a line break

    On files that do not end in a '\n', the cursor will not index out of the buffer, which causes it to stay behind the last character.

    This is a slightly difficult issue as the cursor index is closely-tied to the buffer, and characters cannot be appended to the buffer from outside of it.
