I must have been living under a rock, but I just recently saw the
acme implementation in Go in https://github.com/9fans/go [1]! It works
pretty well and even on weird platforms like AIX!
There is definitely a time-honored tradition of re-implementing acme
in various languages, since it's been done in alef, C, Limbo, and now
Go. So I was wondering, which one is getting the most use these days,
especially amongst the guys like Rob and Russ, and other daily users?
The 9fans/go version, or the plan9port version?
I use the plan9port version daily, but today I discovered Anvil
https://anvil-editor.net/
and I like it a lot.
Speaking of other implementations of acme that interest me there's also:
- Ma, inspired by acme and written in TCL/TK:
http://www.call-with-current-continuation.org/ma/README
- Ad, an Acme / Kakoune inspired editor, written in rust:
https://github.com/sminez/ad
- Edwood, an Acme clone in go: https://github.com/rjkroege/edwood
There's a bunch of other implementations floating around too, but most
of them are unmaintained.
