Red Editor v0.8.1

Red v0.8.1: More room in pickers, reliable save and quit

Red v0.8.1 lets you hide picker previews to see longer result paths. It also waits for an in-progress format-on-save before :wq exits, and updates Wasmtime.

Highlights

• New: Make room for long paths in pickers. Press Alt-p or F4 to hide or restore the preview in file, buffer, and project-search pickers. The query and selected result stay in place.
• Improved: Save and quit after formatting finishes. When format-on-save is pending, :wq waits for the save to finish before exiting. A failed save or a new edit keeps the editor open.
