Michael Davis 1f916e65cf Create helix-stdx crate for stdlib extensions
helix-stdx is meant to carry extensions to the stdlib or low-level
dependencies that are useful in all other crates. This commit starts
with all of the path functions from helix-core and the CWD tracking that
lived in helix-loader.

The CWD tracking in helix-loader was previously unable to call the
canonicalization functions in helix-core. Switching to our custom
canonicalization code should make no noticeable difference though
since `std::env::current_dir` returns a canonicalized path with
symlinks resolved (at least on unix).

Screenshot

A Kakoune / Neovim inspired editor, written in Rust.

The editing model is very heavily based on Kakoune; during development I found myself agreeing with most of Kakoune's design decisions.

For more information, see the website or documentation.

All shortcuts/keymaps can be found in the documentation on the website.

Troubleshooting

Features

  • Vim-like modal editing
  • Multiple selections
  • Built-in language server support
  • Smart, incremental syntax highlighting and code editing via tree-sitter

It's a terminal-based editor first, but I'd like to explore a custom renderer (similar to Emacs) in wgpu or skulpin.

Note: Only certain languages have indentation definitions at the moment. Check runtime/queries/<lang>/ for indents.scm.
