mug

coffeescript based command line text editor which utilizes codemirror modes.

#What? Yeah basically vim but written in coffee with way less features!

Right now you can edit and save files and issue some very basic commands. (or eval any coffee script form)

You start in insert mode, pressing escape brings you back to visual mode.

In visual mode

• i insert mode
• : command
• > short cut for :do ->
• / regular expression
• s,save save file
• sa,saveAs save file as
• q,quit quit
• sq,wq save and quit
• esc exit command mode

When writing commands you have access to the entire Mug object via @doc. This is mainly useful for manipulating @doc.lines e.g.

:do -> @doc.lines = (line.map((c) -> c.toUpperCase()) for line in @doc.lines)

would upper case all of the lines in the document.
