ViK is the Nth generation visual code editor.
The rake, jeweler, mocha and rdoc gems are required for development.
rake install
Since I write a lot of code, I put a lot of effort into knowing my text editor really well. No editor I have used has been perfect but several have really great features or ways of working.
My ideal editor would work somewhat like vim, have a more hackable codebase, a good extension language, have the advanced display support of Emacs, and better IPC than either vim or Emacs.
In short, I think a vim-inspired editor implemented using modern software design would be incredible. Let's make it so!
