| In my classification of editors: 1. Orthodox. Mostly focused on looks and integrations. 2. Modal, Vim improvement. Focus on keeping basic Vim keybindings with minor improvements. 3. Modal, rethinking Vim approach. Ki falls into the third category which I constantly monitor. |

| 4. All of the above. Which is Emacs. |

| ▲ | xpe 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | Hold on. Operating systems and long-running esoteric history are always on topic here, right? (This is spoken with something close to affection; I look fondly on my former Emacs days. I'm probably more likely than not to enjoy the company of a human who has at least tried Emacs and had some thoughtful reaction to it. I may not use it now, but the ideas live on in how I think and what I expect. Editors that push the limits, whatever those limits are, are part of the old school ethos I love about programming.) |

I'm going to give Ki a try and, in case of success, to think about writing Ki binding for Emacs. | | | |

| I am working on a modal code editor project that you might find interesting then. It also operates on an AST directly, which is represented as UI nodes which closely resemble normal text layout. Email in profile if you’d like to give it a try and possibly give early feedback (still in early development). |

| Exactly the same for me. So far, there have been many challengers but the same champion (subjective, I know). |
