Description

At its foundation lies an interpreter dedicated to Emacs Lisp, a variant of the Lisp programming language enhanced for text editing tasks. It offers content-aware editing modes that feature syntax highlighting for a variety of file formats. The platform includes comprehensive built-in documentation, complete with a tutorial aimed at newcomers. Users benefit from extensive Unicode support accommodating nearly all human scripts. It is highly customizable, allowing modifications through Emacs Lisp code or via a graphical interface. Beyond mere text editing, it encompasses a diverse array of functionalities, such as a project planner, email and news reader, debugging interface, calendar, IRC client, and much more. The presence of a packaging system enables users to download and install various extensions seamlessly. Additionally, it provides built-in support for arbitrary-size integers and utilizes HarfBuzz for effective text shaping. There is also native functionality for JSON parsing, improved support for Cairo drawing, and the adoption of portable dumping in lieu of unexec. The system adheres to XDG conventions for initialization files and includes an additional early-init file for enhanced customization. Furthermore, it supports built-in tab bar and tab-line features, as well as the ability to resize and rotate images without relying on ImageMagick, making it a versatile tool for a wide range of tasks. Overall, it stands out as a powerful platform that caters to a multitude of user needs beyond simple text manipulation.

Description

Neovim boasts a first-class API that is easily discoverable, versioned, and well-documented. Its use of MessagePack for structured communication allows for extensions to be created in any programming language. Remote plugins operate as co-processes, ensuring safety and asynchronous execution. Various platforms such as GUIs, IDEs, and web browsers can seamlessly integrate Neovim as their editing tool or scripting host. This consistency extends across all environments, utilizing a single build type and command. It also offers modern terminal capabilities, including cursor styling, focus events, and bracketed paste functionality. With a built-in terminal emulator and sensible defaults, Neovim maintains full compatibility with Vim's editing model and Vimscript v1. If you are transitioning from Vim, starting with :help nvim-from-vim is recommended. The current stable release is version 0.5 (RSS), and interested users can check the roadmap for updates and future objectives. Neovim aims to facilitate new applications while maintaining its commitment to Vim's established functionalities, all while featuring 30% less source code than Vim. Additionally, while Lua is integrated into Neovim, it also offers support for Vimscript through the most sophisticated Vimscript engine available, which includes an AST-producing parser for enhanced performance. This dual support allows users to leverage their existing scripts while exploring the capabilities of Lua.
