List of things that should be added at some point: =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= + X11 interface. + Forms editing package; use RE's to verify field contents. + Internationalization, including wide character support. + Make db, curses real libraries that we load against instead of compiling directly. + Add a ":resize =N" command, that sets the window to a specific size. List of suggested features: =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= + Change tags to also attempt to find the file using the directory where it found the tags file. + Add versioning based on a "set version" variable, that would create backup copies when the file was written back, i.e. the ":w" and autowrite's would copy the original. + Add "set searchdir" for a list of directories to look in for files to edit. The semantic is that ":e foo" is replaced with the file name that is found, so there's no confusion as to which file is written. + Change :di[splay] tags -> :tags :di[splay] screens -> :screens :di[splay] buffers -> :buffers + A macro record function. Add the ability to record a sequence of keystrokes into a named buffer for later use. Handy when you're trying to build a semi-complex macro. + Put multiple messages on a single line if they fit in their entirety, so that ":n" with autowrite set doesn't force users to hit return to get see both the "written" and "new file status" messages. + The semantics of :split, :bg, and :fg aren't right. Someone needs to rethink how they should interact. The main problem arises when users want to get a window into a new file. Currently, the necessary sequence is ":split newfile|^W|:bg". It would be nice if you could simply background the current screen and edit a new one.
