Terminals which support the enhanced keyboard protocol send events for
keys pressed with the Super modifier (Windows/Linux key or the Command
key). The only changes that are needed to support this in Helix are:
* Mapping the modifier from crossterm's KeyModifiers to Helix's
KeyModifiers.
* Representing and parsing the modifier from the KeyEvent text
representation.
* Documenting the ability to remap it.
When writing keybindings, use 'Meta-', 'Cmd-' or 'Win-' which are all
synonymous. For example:
[keys.normal]
Cmd-s = ":write"
will trigger for the Windows or Linux keys and the Command key plus 's'.

A Kakoune / Neovim inspired editor, written in Rust.
The editing model is very heavily based on Kakoune; during development I found myself agreeing with most of Kakoune's design decisions.
For more information, see the website or documentation.
All shortcuts/keymaps can be found in the documentation on the website.
Features
- Vim-like modal editing
- Multiple selections
- Built-in language server support
- Smart, incremental syntax highlighting and code editing via tree-sitter
Although it's primarily a terminal-based editor, I am interested in exploring a custom renderer (similar to Emacs) using wgpu or skulpin.
Note: Only certain languages have indentation definitions at the moment. Check
runtime/queries/<lang>/ for indents.scm.
