Must Have (Blocker for Release)

  • Modal editing (normal, insert, visual)
  • Core motions and operators
  • Text objects
  • Undo/redo

  • % (matching bracket)
  • J (join lines)

Should Have (Makes it Usable)

  • :substitute (%s/old/new/g) - at least basic version
  • Better command-mode autocomplete/hints

  • Persistent undo history
  • Line wrapping display option
  • Horizontal scroll
