Description-en: Vim-inspired, selection-oriented code editor
Kakoune is a code editor heavily inspired by Vim; as such most of its
commands are similar to vi’s ones, and it shares Vi’s "keystrokes as
a text editing language" model. 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.
