Hi I'm pleased to announce a new version of the vis editor, combining modal editing with built-in support for multiple selections, structural regular expressions and Lua scripting capabilities.
https://www.brain-dump.org/projects/vis/vis-0.6.tar.gz Changes include: - bounded time syntax highlighting using the `:set redrawtime` option - support optional count for sam's text commands e.g. `:i3/-/` - make `<C-n>` in visual mode match next occurence of existing selection - warn when attempting to write to an existing file - improved file change detection based on inode instead of path information - fix file saves with modifications in file pre-save events - fix save on file systems without `fsync(2)` support on directory descriptors - do not unlink `file~` when saving `file` - introduce distinct `vis-menu(1)` exit codes - modify Lua package.path to include <plugin>/init.lua - performance improvements for the HTML, XML and YAML lexers - new Julia and Elm lexers, better defaults for standard text lexer - support optional exit status in `:q` and `:qall` commands - better temporary file creation using `mkstemp(2)` - performance improvements in highlight matching parentheses - improved behavior of `^` and `$` in searches and looping commands - improved search wrap around behavior - new `:set layout` option to specify window orientation - improved filetype detection by matching known filenames exactly - support DragonFly BSD in configure script - better manual page, fixed warnings - removed `gp`, `gP`, `gq` - implement `g~`, `gu` and `gU` using `tr(1)`, they are no longer operators - removed `v` and `V` in operator pending mode - avoid crash if `$TERM` is unset - keep selections after `:>` command - normalize selections after `:` command execution - show pending input queue content in status bar - make `r<Enter>` insert a new line - new `:set loadmethod` option, valid values are `read`, `mmap` or `auto` - always apply `:|` command to existing selections - fix terminal UI on serial console - various code cleanups, removal of VLA - <Escape> resets count, if applicable - fix `:X` and `:Y` commands which were interchanged - don't strip executables by default, provide install-strip target Marc
