Enough has changed to bump the version. We're skipping 0.1.x because
previously the CLI would always report version as 0.1.0, and we'd like
to distinguish it in bug reports..
- The `runtime/` directory is now properly detected on binary releases and
on cargo run. `~/.config/helix/runtime` can also be used.
- Registers can now be selected via " (for example `"ay` )
- Support for Nix files was added
- Movement is now fully tested and matches kakoune implementation
- A per-file LSP symbol picker was added to space+s
- Selection can be replaced with yanked text via R
- `1g` now correctly goes to line 1
- `ctrl-i` now correctly jumps backwards in history
- A small memory leak was fixed, where we tried to reuse tree-sitter
query cursors, but always allocated a new one
- Auto-formatting is now only on for certain languages
- The root directory is now provided in LSP initialization, fixing
certain language servers (typescript)
- LSP failing to start no longer panics
- Elixir language queries were fixed
# 0.0.10
Keymaps:
- Add mappings to jump to diagnostics
- Add gt/gm/gb mappings to jump to top/middle/bottom of screen

- The runtime/ can now optionally be embedded in the binary
- Haskell syntax added
- Window mode (ctrl-w) added
- Show matching bracket (vim's matchbrackets)
- Themes now support style modifiers
- First user contributed theme
- Create a document if it doesn't exist yet on save
- Detect language on a new file on save
