Micro

Go Report Card MIT License

Micro is a work in progress, not suitable for use yet.

Micro is a command line text editor that aims to be easy to use and intuitive, while also taking advantage of the full capabilities of modern terminals.

Features

  • Easy to use
  • Common keybindings (ctrl-s, ctrl-c, ctrl-v, ctrl-z...)
  • Extremely good mouse support
  • True color support
  • Cross platform
  • Fast and efficient
  • Syntax highlighting (in over 75 languages!)

Not all of this is implemented yet -- see progress

Installation

Installation is simple. For now you must build from source, although in the future binaries will be provided.

Make sure your GOPATH is set.

$ git clone https://github.com/zyedidia/micro
$ cd micro
$ make

This will build micro and put the binary in the current directory. It will also install syntax highlighting files to ~/.micro/syntax.

Alternatively you can use make install instead of make if you want the binary to be added to you GOBIN (make sure that it is set).

Progress

Micro is very much a work in progress right now. To see what has and hasn't been done yet, see the todolist
