ve editor

ve is a vi(m) like editor which runs inside your terminal, using ncurses. At present, it is quite simple, with the following features:

  • Create and open text files for editing
  • Navigate through files with arrow keys (in normal and insert mode) as well as with hjkl (j and k are swapped because I wanted to)
  • Enter insert mode with 'i', go back to normal mode with ESC, and enter commands with ':'
  • Insert mode works in the way you'd expect
  • Scroll through large files
  • Saving and quitting in the same way as Vim

Building

g++ src/main.cpp -Lncurses -o ve
