Tine Text Editor

  • I love passion projects!

    A complete text editor, written in a language that is also by the same person. This requires dedication. Who cares if it's maintainable by others or if it's a worthwhile effort, its aim is clearly stated as self use.

    If anybody wants to see how it looks, there is a screenshot at the language repo. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/travisdoor/bl/master/logo/...

  • Great job, and written in your own custom language as well! Did you use piece tables by any chance as a data structure? And did you have any reference for how to write a text editor or did you just invent it all yourself?

  • this is sweet, ty for going opensource.

  • > The main goal of this editor is to keep the focus on the text editing and not be distracted too much by buttons, tabs, menus, and animations… I used Emacs a lot.

    I am sure emacs can be easily configured not to have too many animations. Even on Windows.

  • Why are there static libraries committed in the modules folder? That doesn't seem very open source. Also what is the license of this I see the legal thing but it looks like a bunch of font licenses. I didn't look too carefully maybe I just miss details.
