Lued is a text editor. It runs in a terminal window such as konsole, gnome-terminal or PuTTY.
If you can, use an IDE (such as IntelliJ or Eclipse) or GUI-based editor (such as Sublime Text, VSCode or Atom). If you're stuck in a terminal, then try Vi or Emacs. If those options don't work then give Lued a try. I use it regularly and make tweaks as I go, but there's still work to be done.

vi style open file to previous row+col. (not session based)
bug - last letter of file gets chomped when last line is not empty.

- Feat - alt+dn. delete up to but not include find string.
- Feat - alt+dn. if prev command was alt+dn then don't prompt
- Feat - alt_xn. repeated xn grows paste buffer.
TAB,back-arrow - If cursor ends in a word then goto end of word ctrl+V - If on first col of line then don't delete leading spaces
n't is not the start of a comment so don't highlight
create backup with version number on every save, like vax edt purge command to delete old backups Step back/forward through backups diff between versions side-by-side diff/merge tool possibly just re-formatted diff tool. spell check use unix words. As word is found in words, move to local hash for speed. alt+add - add word to file, project, user dictionary
git suppport add commit, commit-all, push branch highlight delta merge status
look into vim/tabularize Track Changes. highlight changes from specific version approve changes backout changes comment on changes
alt+LL - indent to level the current line is.
auto-close - [('""')] < autoclose > when line starts with #include
tab - have ctrl-z work correctly for tab. ie: cont -> continue ctrl_z -> cont
tab - search for matching word in file, project, user dictionary, global dictionary
alt+ln alt+ln alt+LN alt+ln - remember if absolute or relative line numbers is active
alt---- repeat - for the length of the line above alt--=== repeat = for the length of the line above alt-###, *** ^^^ 3char repeats char for length of the previous line
duplicate line - done alt+DD fails when on last line.
auto-comment - done on if current line is a comment then make the next line a comment
Line number - done When line numbers are enable, put indicator around the current line number.
Long lines - done line-wrap=off - don't wrap lines that are too line
Status Line - done Top-line bug when window is narrow. missing
grep - done alt+gg - list all matches in all open files alt+GG - list all matches in file alt+grep - lis all matches in glob of open files
tabs at start of line - done When on a blankline or in the leading whitespace the has two behaviors. If the cursor is before the first non-whitespace of the previos line then the cursor will align to the previous line's first non-whitespace. If the cursor is at or after the previous line's first non-whitespace then the cursor will advance to the next indent level.
Join Lines - done alt+jj - this command joins two lines, the current line with the next line. When joining two comment lines, the comment indicator is removed from the second line.
Grep / Search all open files - done alt+gg - When choosing file to goto, the user can enter a new search string to grep again. alt+GG - Return to previous file after grepping. This is implemented as a stack so you can go back multiple files.
Delete Multiple Characters - done alt+dN - Delete N char (including current char). N must be less than 10.
Repeat Previous N Commands - done alt+rN - Repeat the last N command
Ctrl-T - show most-recent 5 files after listing all files - done
alt-t - The file menu shows the most recent files even when the file filter is not "". This is confusing. Only show most recent when filter="". done
============================== find - highlight all matches number all matches. alt+f# jumps to the specific match
jah finds start_col of next word and after paste adds spaced to current word as needed to align next word to same start_col. I don't know what the action is for this request.
tab-backspace needs cleanup goto save column, go down one if not is_space() then
Find and Replace Y - replace and stop at cursor N - dont' replace and stop at cursor Q - quit and stay at cursor
Dictionaries Add selected word to dictionary. highlight words not in dictionary.
alt-gg/grep/ct add support for most-recent lines
Comment contination - On only start next line with comment if the current and subsequent line starts with a comment. Currently the next line will start with a comment if the current line is a comment. This is too aggressive.
alt-gg (grep) needs its own dedicated search history
paste indent needs fixing. sometimes it works, othertimes it doesn't.
if linenumber is greater than numlines then supress
find - if string is on the page then move the cursor, and keep page alignment the same. find - bug find multiple occurrences on the same line sometimes doesn't work
Need better rules for quote/bracket completion.
