I'm pleased to announce the 0.5 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.
Yi is not a finished product. This is a beta-quality release. However, Yi has become a lot more usable 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-0.5.0.1
If you want unix console 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 * Unix Console front-end (Gtk2Hs frontend is not supported in this release)
* Static configuration (XMonad style) for fast load * Haskell support: * Lexical highlighting * Layout-aware parenthesis-matching * Auto-indentation * cabal-build within the editor
