Fantastic release, thank you! It's never been so easy to start
playing with Yi. : )

I'm very pleased to announce the 0.4.1 release of the Yi editor.
== Yi == Yi is a text editor written and extensible in Haskell. The long-term goal of the Yi project is to provide the editor of choice for Haskell programmers. In the meantime, we have fun by hacking an editor in a decent language :)
Yi is not a finished product. This is an alpha-quality release. However, Yi has become a lot more accessible than previously, so if you feel like testing it, now might be a good time to take a look.
== Installation ==
Using cabal install:
cabal install yi-0.4.1
If you want gtk support, first install gtk2hs 0.9.13. If you want vty support, pass the -fvty option to cabal install.
== Features == * A purely functional editor core; * Key-bindings written as parsers of the input; * Emacs, Vim and (partial) Cua emulations provided by default; * Vty, Gtk2Hs, and (experimental) Cocoa front-ends; * Static configuration (XMonad style) for fast load; * Simple Haskell support: * Syntax highlighting * Auto-indentation * Call cabal-build within the editor
