The status bar shows file, cursor position and window type. It is missing a few things tho.

• Add a check for available space to switch between status bar layouts
• Use special characters for partitioning (e.g. ►) and different background colors

The user should be able to customize colors and other settings like tab size. This would involve making an extension to the parser and making a new window type.
The parser would get the set command (e.g. set color_text = 10 or set tab_size = 8) which could be used to set editor settings.
The new window type should show all editor settings to the user and give the user the ability to lookup variable names for the set command and also to change variables on the spot (these on the spot changes would be temporary)

• Make extension to the parser to set variable names to integers using set
• Add the window type settingsviewer

There is a lacking support of windows, the only window available is the edit window as of right now (a file view can only be accessed with a popup window). These windows would need to be added to improve workflow and increase the control the user has over the editor:

• Make general system to manage window types
• File viewer as window, there should be the possibility to add a permanent file viewer
• Buffer viewer, this shows all active buffers and allows the user to delete them
• Settings viewer to show all editor settings and make them easily changeable
