Sort themes, language & files by score & then name (#2675)
* Sort themes by score & then name

Previously the themes were appearing unordered after typing ':theme '.
This sorts them first by fuzzy score and then by name so that they
generally appear in a more ordered fashion in the initial list.

The sort by name does not really pay off when there is a score so an
alternative approach would be to sort by name if there is string to
fuzzy match against and otherwise sort by score.

I've lowercased the names as that avoids lower case & upper case letters
being sorted into separate groups. There might be a preferable approach
to that though.

* Sort language & files by score then name

And change to use sort_unstable_by instead of sort_unstable_by_key as it
allows us to avoid some allocations.

I don't fully understand the flow of the 'filename_impl' function but
this seems to deliver the desired results.

* Remove unnecessary reference

Helix

Build status

Screenshot

A kakoune / neovim inspired editor, written in Rust.

The editing model is very heavily based on kakoune; during development I found myself agreeing with most of kakoune's design decisions.

For more information, see the website or documentation.

All shortcuts/keymaps can be found in the documentation on the website.

Troubleshooting

Features

  • Vim-like modal editing
  • Multiple selections
  • Built-in language server support
  • Smart, incremental syntax highlighting and code editing via tree-sitter

It's a terminal-based editor first, but I'd like to explore a custom renderer (similar to emacs) in wgpu or skulpin.

Note: Only certain languages have indentation definitions at the moment. Check runtime/queries/<lang>/ for indents.scm.

Installation

Packages are available for various distributions (see Installation docs).

If you would like to build from source:

git clone https://github.com/helix-editor/helix
cd helix
cargo install --path helix-term

This will install the hx binary to $HOME/.cargo/bin and build tree-sitter grammars. If you want to customize your languages.toml config, tree-sitter grammars may be manually fetched and built with hx --grammar fetch and hx --grammar build.

Helix also needs its runtime files so make sure to copy/symlink the runtime/ directory into the config directory (for example ~/.config/helix/runtime on Linux/macOS, or %AppData%/helix/runtime on Windows).

OS command
windows xcopy runtime %AppData%/helix/runtime
linux/macos ln -s $PWD/runtime ~/.config/helix/runtime

This location can be overridden via the HELIX_RUNTIME environment variable.

Packages already solve this for you by wrapping the hx binary with a wrapper that sets the variable to the install dir.

NOTE: running via cargo also doesn't require setting explicit HELIX_RUNTIME path, it will automatically detect the runtime directory in the project root.

In order to use LSP features like auto-complete, you will need to install the appropriate Language Server for a language.

Packaging status

MacOS

Helix can be installed on MacOS through homebrew via:

brew tap helix-editor/helix
brew install helix
