minus-squarebubstance@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-21 year agoI’ll give you six that I haven’t seen mentioned yet: sim and vis, both of which focus on combining vim motions with structural regular expressions as used in… sam and acme from Plan 9, both of which are included in Plan 9 from User Space (aka plan9port). sam also has a modified/expanded version in the form of deadpixi/sam, while acme has spin-offs like a port to Go and a standalone version. mg, one of the three default text editors included with OpenBSD (the others being vi and ed). sandy, the abandoned suckless text editor. It uses dmenu and is fun to mess with for shits and giggles.
