:
: Kakoune is a code editor that implements Vi’s "keystrokes as a text editing
: language" model. As it’s also a modal editor, it is somewhat similar to the Vim
: editor (after which Kakoune was originally inspired).
:
: Kakoune can operate in two modes, normal and insertion. In insertion mode, keys
: are directly inserted into the current buffer. In normal mode, keys are used to
: manipulate the current selection and to enter insertion mode.
:
: Kakoune has a strong focus on interactivity, most commands provide immediate and
: incremental results, while still being competitive (as in keystroke count) with
: Vim.
:
: Kakoune works on selections, which are oriented, inclusive range of characters,
: selections have an anchor and a cursor character. Most commands move both of
: them, except when extending selection where the anchor character stays fixed and
: the cursor one moves around.
